In short

How do I chase timesheets before the payroll deadline?

WebRun signs into Insperity every morning and checks the current pay period for employees who have not submitted time and timesheets still waiting on approval. It files a dated list in Google Drive and sends managers the outstanding names on Telegram with the days left to the cutoff.

  • Payroll is not chased in the last hour before cutoff
  • Each manager sees only the names they approve
  • Every morning of the cutoff week is on record in Drive

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it approve or submit timesheets?

No. Approving time affects what people are paid, so it always stays with the manager. WebRun only reports who has not submitted and which timesheets are waiting.

Will it message employees directly?

No. The names go to managers on Telegram and into your Drive file. Chasing an individual employee is left to their manager to do in their own words.

Does it run outside the cutoff week?

It runs every morning but the list is scoped to the open pay period, so it stays quiet when nothing is outstanding and gets specific as the cutoff approaches.

Put this on autopilot.
