How to Prevent Editing or Creating Historical Time Entries

Learn how Admin users can prevent editing or creating past time entries in VeriClock to protect payroll accuracy. This guide explains where to enable time entry restrictions, choose cutoff rules by week, payroll period, month, or date, and apply day offsets before finalizing payroll.

Admin Users can now block anyone (including themselves) from editing or creating time events that occurred in the past.

The setting is found on Settings --> Time --> Settings

You can block events from being edited or created if the start date occurred:

• prior to the start of the current week (as set up in your account)*
• prior to the start of the current payroll period (as set up in your account)*
• prior to the start of the current month*
• prior to a selected date

* You can also add a + day offset to give additional days after the end of the cut off to allow final editing before running payroll, for example.

The text shown will indicate how your selection will affect your account.

Please reach out by email or chat if you need further assistance with this setting.

Thanks for using VeriClock!
