Using The Rapid Time Screen

Use the HIP system to quickly enter or change hours for a group of employees through Rapid Time. 

The Rapid Time screen is available for Timekeepers to quickly enter hours for multiple employees at once as opposed to going to each employee’s Timesheet individually.  You’ll choose from pre-defined templates and processing modes to add, correct, or replace hours for your employees. 

You can find the Rapid Time screen by navigating through your Time and Labor WorkCenter or NavBar, click the following link to view a helpful article on the different ways to navigate to your Timekeeper screens.
