Once you can see your timesheet, the next questions are usually about fixing it: how to submit a timesheet change request, how to split time allocation across cost centers, and for managers, how to approve timesheets and edit time entries.
FAQ: Viewing Your Timesheet in UKG Ready
Where do I find my timesheet in UKG Ready?
Go to Menu > My Info > My Time > Timesheet > Current Timesheet, or open the My Timesheet widget on your dashboard. Use the pay period arrows or calendar icon to view past timesheets.
Why can’t I edit my timesheet in UKG Ready?
Timesheet editing depends on your company’s configuration and your security permissions. Many organizations allow employees to submit a Timesheet Change Request instead of editing entries directly, and timesheets that have been submitted or approved are typically locked.
How do I fix a wrong entry on my UKG Ready timesheet?
If direct editing is enabled, expand the daily row and correct the time entry, then save. If not, use the Change Request action to submit a correction for your manager’s approval.
What do the tabs on my UKG Ready timesheet mean?
The Time Entry tab shows your worked time for the pay period. Depending on configuration, additional tabs like Pay Calculation (how your hours translate to pay categories) and Exceptions (flagged issues such as missed punches) may also be available.
Fewer timesheet corrections start at the clock
Most timesheet questions trace back to punches that were missed, misplaced, or entered by hand. CloudApper AI TimeClock captures punches on any tablet with Face ID verification and posts clean time data straight to UKG Ready — so the timesheet employees open is already right.
