Incompleted time entry
When a time entry is incomplete (e.g. there is no end time):
- it remains modifiable
- it cannot be approved on the web.
Completed time entry
When a time entry is complete, that is, it has at least a human resource, an activity, a start time and an end time:
- it becomes pending approval
- as long as it is not approved, it can be modified.
Approved time entry
When a time entry is approved:
- the information related to its approval is displayed,
- it is no longer possible to modify it on the mobile or on the web.
An approver must reject the approval to allow the time entry to be changed.
