How to Log in to Online Timekeeping

Summary: Timekeeping is a Web-based application used by authorized timekeepers to report, administer, and maintain employee hours for payroll time records. If you need to review the login process, follow these step-by-step instructions.

Note: You must complete the requirements for becoming a timekeeper before following the steps on this page.

Your computer and the timekeeping application: You need to have a recent-version Web browser (Netscape or Internet Explorer) installed on your workstation to run the timekeeping application. If you need assistance, contact the systems administrator in your department or call the ACT Help Desk, (858) 534-1853.

What to do		How to do it
1	Get ready to log in.	Go to EmployeeLink. Select Timekeeping from the list of Transaction/ Entry Services or click Time Entry in the left menu.
2	Log in.	Enter your user ID and password. Click Logon. If you need assistance with your user ID and password, contact the DSA in your department or the ACT Help Desk, (858) 534-1853.
3	Select the timekeeping entry option.	Go to the Timekeeping Menu. Click the Timkeeping Entry link. This will launch another browser window and the timekeeping application will begin to load. Another validation window will prompt you to click Logon to continue the application load. Note: The application may take up to a minute or so to load. If after you click Logon you receive a "Logon failed" message, go to Accesslink and resyncronize your password. Remember, passwords can't have any special characters.

The current, active pay period will default as the selected choice in the window. Note: You may view prior pay period data by clicking the down arrow to the right of the window. Changes to a prior pay period must be made as an adjustment in the current pay period. Select your timekeeper code from the list in the window.
