Reporting Time Worked

This article covers how hourly/intermittent employees and faculty working on a Faculty Additional Employment Work Break appointment report the hours they worked.

This timesheet is only to report hours worked. Some hourly/intermittent employees also need to report absences using the Report Absences feature. Check with your department timekeeper or Payroll if you are not sure if you also have to report absences.

It is highly recommended that employees enter their time worked on a daily basis in order to keep the timesheet up to date.

1. Log in to your portal, access Titan Online, and select Time Reporting in Employee Self Service.

View Accessing Your Timesheet for more details about accessing Time Reporting.

time reporting codes

Depending on your position, you may see different Time Reporting Codes.

Most hourly/intermittent employees will choose REG - Regular Hours Worked.

Faculty reporting time worked for a Faculty Additional Employment Work Break contract should choose FACSM - Faculty Summer.

If you have other types of reported time, consult your department timekeeper or Payroll for assistance in selecting the correct Time Reporting Code.

3. Review your entry for accuracy and then click Submit.

You should not need to modify the Taskgroup unless instructed by your department timekeeper or Payroll.

submit entries

Clicking Submit does not finalize your timesheet. You can return to the timesheet to make additional entries until the pay period closes which is typically 5 calendar days after the start of the next month (e.g., the January pay period is closed as of February 5th).

After a pay period is closed, you will need to submit an adjustment form to Payroll which is available on the HRDI Forms webpage.
