Description: In this topic, the user will learn how to manage entries in the DCI mobile app as an employee. Generally, the time entry will be approved automatically and there is no need for further action. However, in some cases such as when a supervisor or employer edits the employee's time, an unverified entry is created. In this case, the employee must verify the time in order to get paid for the shift.
Role Required: Employee (base user)

Click Confirm to verify the entry
After an entry has been verified, within a few minutes the punch will appear in Pending status. This means the punch has been confirmed by the employee and is available to be verified in the approval process by the client, employer, or supervisor. Once approved, the status will change to Approved and the entry will be processed for payment.
