If you're trying to add time entries for a past date to your new employee, but you can't access it, here's how to fix it.


Adjust hire date to profile

To unlock past dates for an employee you've just added, and to be able to enter time entries manually on their timesheet, you must modify their profile hire date on their employee record in Atlas.

  1. Go to Employees > Manage.

  2. Locate the employee's name, then click the View icon to go to their profile.

  3. Click on the Job tab, then click the Update button.

  4. Change the Start date in current role to one that precedes the desired date in order to unlock past timesheets.
