Overview
When an employee submits time, the reported time travels through a series of actions performed by the timekeeper/approver and the M-Pathways system. The TL Rptd Time Audit Report provides line item details of each action.
There are two common scenarios when the TL Rptd Time Audit Report is useful:
- If an employee's reported times are modified by the approver, the TL Rptd Time Audit Report provides the audit history of each change.
- If a unit has more than one approver or timekeeper editing an employee's reported time, the TL Rptd Time Audit Report tracks every action performed by each user.
Report Parameters
The report requires the following:
- An EmplID or a Static Group
- A specific date or range of dates
The report will list only one EmplID and day per page. For the detailed steps to run reports, refer to:

TL Rptd Time Audit Report
The report is organized into two main sections (A and B):
- The complete audit detail is in the top section (A). It lists each action on a different line.
- The bottom section (B) identifies the specific change(s) that occurred with the line items in the top section.
The recommended approach to reviewing the report is to first review the top section for the chronological history of the actions that occurred to the reported time for the date. If the change that occurred is unclear, refer to the bottom section for the breakdown of the old and new values.
