What are timesheet claims?

The Timesheet Claims menu option in Cintra iQ can be used to post Self-Service Timesheets Claims to Payroll and view previously posted claims.

 

The Timesheet Groups and Timesheet Heading Sets set up in Cintra iQ's Timesheet module controls the Timesheet claims within Self-Service for those employees who are in a single post or who have multiple posts. After an employee's claim is submitted for approval and is accepted within Self-Service Timesheets, the employee's manager posts the claim and Payroll processes the Timesheet claim for payment in Cintra iQ. For more information about the procedures, see Timesheet Claim tasks.
