Everything else E-Signature does

What happens between a signature request and a fully closed pay period.

WHO CAN DO WHAT

Choose who can send or cancel a request

Roles decide who manages templates, who can cancel a request and who can only view.

01

Templates you set up once

Signature requests start from your saved templates, so nobody drafts one from scratch.

02

Cancelling is its own permission

Cancelling an unsigned request can be given to some roles only.

03

View without editing

Some roles can see who has signed without being able to change the template.

04

Acknowledge or sign

A document can ask staff to acknowledge it or to sign it, and the record shows which.

QUESTIONS

Timesheet e-signature: common questions

Do I need a separate e-signature tool?

No. Timesheet sign-off is part of Day.io, so the hours and the signatures sit in the same account.

Can staff sign their timesheets on their phone?

Yes. Staff sign from their phone or a computer. Nobody prints a timesheet to sign by hand and scan back.

What does a signed timesheet let me show?

It shows the employee signed off those hours. If HMRC or the Fair Work Agency ever asks, you can pull up which timesheets each person signed.

How long are signed timesheets kept?

As long as your company needs. Day.io doesn't delete them, and they stay on file after someone leaves.
