Sign and submit your timesheet

InfoGuidesclock icon1 MIN READ·calendar iconUPDATED OCT 30, 2026

Learn how to legally sign and submit your timesheet in Toku by typing your name and clicking submit. Your timesheet then goes to your admin for approval, and you can correct any issues if it's returned.

At the end of each period (weekly for manual entry, monthly for Autopilot), you sign your timesheet. Signing is the legally meaningful step: it turns the records into your own declaration of the time you worked, which is what labour law asks for.

How to sign

  1. Open Time Tracking. The bar at the bottom of the page shows your progress - hours recorded and days covered.
  2. Type your full name in the signature field. Typing your name is your signature; Toku stores the name exactly as typed, with the time and network address.
  3. Click Sign and submit. Your timesheet goes to your admin for approval, and its status changes to Awaiting approval.

The sign-off bar stays visible at the bottom of the page: type your full name, then click Sign and submit

Good to know:

  • You can sign with missing days. The bar tells you how many past days have no entry; they are flagged to your admin rather than blocking you.
  • Only you can sign. No admin - not even Toku - can sign a timesheet in your name.
  • Autopilot employees: your days are generated from your work schedule. Review them, correct anything that does not match reality (a correction marks the day as manually edited), then sign the month.
  • Once signed, the period locks. If you spot a mistake after signing, ask your admin to return it to you.

If your timesheet is returned for correction

If your admin finds a problem, they reject the timesheet with a reason. It comes back to you unlocked, with the reason shown at the top of the page. Fix the affected days and sign again.
