Punch Entry Report Status

Meaning/Action Needed

Approved

The branch or local office needs to run a Payroll Batch for the pay period in question.

Rejected

A staff member, the provider, or the consumer rejected the entry, meaning the entry was not accurate.

Providers are not notified if a time entry is rejected by a staff member but are notified if it is done by the Consumer.

Open

The provider has clocked in for a shift but have not yet clocked out.

Pending

An entry that is waiting for auto-approval to run or has failed a business rule in OR PTC DCI.

Failing a business rule typically means the provider claimed more hours than were authorized by the Case Manager. Pending entries will not be paid. See 4.1.1 Pending Entries Management for more information.

Unverified

The punch has been either entered or edited by a staff member and must be verified. Unverified entries require action in order to move on in the process and be paid. Either another staff member or the provider can verify the entry.
