# Employee Guide: track and submit your time

> A Beebole guide for employees: log your hours on the timesheet, record time off, submit your week for approval, and track time from the mobile app.

Beebole is where you log the hours you work and the time you take off. As an employee, your day-to-day work happens on the **Timesheet** — you record what you worked on, submit your week, and request leave. This guide walks through those tasks in the order you meet them.

<Info>
  Your administrator sets up Beebole — projects, time-off types, and approval rules are already in place. You sign in with a one-time 6-digit code emailed to you, a passkey, your Google or Microsoft account, or your company's single sign-on. There are no passwords to remember.

## Log your time

Open **Timesheet** in the sidebar to record your hours. The timesheet is a grid: each row is a project (and optionally a task), and each column is a day in the period.

1. Add a row for what you worked on, then pick the project or task.
2. Enter your hours in the **Time spent** field for the right day.
3. Repeat for each piece of work — Beebole saves entries as you go.

If your administrator turned on the timer, you can click **Start timer** on a row to time your work live instead of typing hours, then **Pause timer** to save the elapsed time. You can also copy a previous period to reuse the same rows.

See [Timesheets](/help/documentation/timesheets) for the full grid, timer, and copy-period details.

## Record time off

To log vacation, sick leave, or any other absence, add a **Time off** row on your timesheet and enter the time against the right time-off type. Depending on how your administrator configured that type, your request may need approval before it counts.

Your available balance for each type — what you have **Taken**, **Accrued**, and **Available** — is tracked for you. Learn more in [Time off](/help/documentation/timeoff).

## Submit your timesheet

When your period is complete, click **Submit** at the top of the timesheet. This locks the period and sends it into your organization's approval workflow.

An approver then reviews it and either approves it or rejects it. If it is **Rejected**, a comment tells you why — fix the entries and click **Resubmit**. Once every stage approves, the timesheet is **Approved** and stays locked.

See [Approval](/help/documentation/approval) for how the review process works stage by stage.

## Track time on mobile

The Beebole mobile app lets you log time, run the timer, and request time off from your phone — useful when you work away from your desk. Your entries sync with the web app automatically.

See [Mobile](/help/documentation/mobile) to install the app and get started.
