Contractor Management
Managing contractor timesheets
How contractors submit timesheets and how admins review and approve hours in CLMS.
How timesheet submission works
For contractors on hourly or daily rate contracts, payment is based on approved timesheets. The workflow is:
- Contractor submits a timesheet for the week or month
- The project manager or HR admin reviews and approves
- Approved hours are used to calculate the payment amount
- Payment is processed in the next payment cycle
