If you are unable to edit someone\u2019s time entry, it\u2019s usually due to workspace settings or approved time entries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Workspace role<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Make sure that you have the correct role assigned in the workspace. As per the current design: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Admins can edit time entries for everyone<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Team Managers can only edit the time for users they manage if enabled in the Workspace Settings<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Project Managers can\u2019t edit time for others<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can check your role via the Team page. If you do not have access to the Team page, contact your admin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The Force Timer or Lock Timesheets features are enabled<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019ve enabled the Force Timer or Lock Timesheets feature, as an admin, you can still edit time for other team members via the Detailed Report. However, if the Force Timer is enabled, you won\u2019t be able to make changes via the Timesheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s how to do it on the Detailed Report:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Select a date range from the calendar<\/li>\n\n\n\n

Find the entry you\u2019d like to edit and make changes in the designated fields<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Time entry has been approved<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Approved time entries are locked and can\u2019t be edited by anyone, including admins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Approved time entries will have a green check mark in the Detailed report and Timesheet<\/li>\n\n\n\n
To edit them, the timesheet will need to be withdrawn<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
To withdraw a timesheet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Navigate to the Approvals tab from the sidebar<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Find the relevant timesheet under the Archive tab<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Click to open it and select \u201cWithdraw\u201d in the upper right corner<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Go back to the Detailed report and make the changes<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
