How to unsubmit a time entry#
For: Manager You’ll need: A time entry with status ‘Submitted’ in an open company period.
You’ll roll a single row back from ‘Submitted’ to ‘Published’ when you need to fix the times or you submitted by mistake. Unsubmitting reverses every accrual that submit triggered.
Unsubmit the row#
In the left sidebar, go to Planning → Management → Timesheet.
Find the row you want to unsubmit.
Click ‘Unsubmit’ on the row.
What unsubmit does#
The status flips back to ‘Published’.
Leave accruals tied to the row are reversed — see Leave requests.
Time-compensation accruals tied to the row are reversed — see Time compensation.
The clock-in and clock-out are cleared, so you can re-enter the right times before re-submitting.
Warning
Clearing the clock times is intentional — it forces you to re-confirm them before the row is re-submitted. If you only want to change one minute, edit the row first (How to edit clock-in and clock-out times), then unsubmit and re-submit.
Verify it worked#
The row’s status badge reads ‘Published’, the clock-in and clock-out cells are empty, and the leave or time-compensation balance is back to its pre-submit value.
Locked periods#
If the company period is closed, the row shows a “locked” banner and Shiftavo refuses to unsubmit. See What a locked period looks like on the timesheet.
