Adding and Removing a Proxy

This page contains basic instructions for supervisors to grant or revoke proxy access in timecard.biola.edu.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is another employee that you, or Human Resources (HR), has given access to act in a supervisory role on your behalf in the Timecard system.

A proxy has the following abilities in Timecard:

  • See all of the employees that report to you, including timecards and Banner position data
  • Approve or return timecards for you
  • Optional: Receive supervisory timecard notifications for you

A proxy cannot do the following

  • Fill out your own timecard or paid leave report
  • Submit your timecard or paid leave report on your behalf
  • Approve or return his/her own timecard, in the case that the proxy works for you

Adding a proxy

  1. Sign in to Timecard. See Accessing your current timecard (or paid leave record).
  2. Click on the icon to bring up the Supervise menu.
  3. Click on "Proxies" under the Supervise menu.
  4. Type the person's name in the search field and select the correct auto-suggest option.
  5. Click the "+" button to add this person as your proxy.

Removing a proxy

Follow steps 1, 2, and 3 under "Adding a proxy" to get to your list of current proxies.

To remove a proxy, click on the "Remove" button next to that proxy's photo, name, and title.

Changing a proxy's notification settings

Check or uncheck the "Receive Notification Emails" setting to control whether or not a proxy receives the same supervisor notifications for your employees that you do.

When to configure a proxy to receive notifications

We recommend you configure a proxy to receive notifications when:

  1. you are going on vacation or leave and will not be reviewing or approving timecards, or
  2. you want this person to always review and approve timecards for you
