Create and Submit Your Time Card
Important Notes:
Classified staff, student employees, and all other hourly non-exempt staff should enter their hours worked each week every Monday. Visit the payroll calendar for due dates.
Most faculty and professional staff are exempt employees and paid a bi-weekly salary, meaning time is only entered in Bronco Hub for leave or absences. Exempt (salaried) employees can choose to create a time card to submit absences.
Holiday hours are automatically entered and approved for applicable benefit eligible employees.
Do not FMLA codes on your time card unless you have been approved for FMLA through Human Resources. If you are in need of FMLA, please contact HR at hrfmla@boisestat.edu.
Submitted time cards route to the employee’s supervisor for review and approval before routing to Payroll for processing. Visit Supervisor Resources for Time Cards, Absences & Approvals for more information.
Instructions to Create & Submit a Time Card
Step 1: Log in to Bronco Hub and Access Time and Absences
Begin by signing in to Bronco Hub.
Select Me from the top navigation section of Bronco Hub and then select Time and Absences.
Step 2: Select the Applicable Time Card Option
To create a time card for the current pay period, select the Current Time Cards card.
To create a time card for a prior pay period, select the Existing Time Cards card.
New pay periods start every other Sunday. Visit the Payroll Due Dates & Pay Dates to confirm whether you’re entering time for a current or prior pay period.
The dates for the current pay period’s time card will display in the upper left corner.
If you need to create a time card for a prior pay period, exit the current time card and access Existing Time Cards.
Once you are in the Existing Time Cards section, you must select Add in the upper right corner, and pick a date that falls within the pay period you’re entering time for.
After selecting a date, the applicable time card will load and you can continue with step 3 below.
Step 3: Add Assignment, Time Reporting Code and Time Details
Select the Add button on the right-hand side of the Entries section to enter your hours worked.
Select your employee ID from the Assignment Number dropdown.
From the Time Reporting Codes drop down, select the appropriate time reporting code for the hours you’re submitting. View a list of all available time reporting codes here.
Step 4: Select Dates
Select the calendar (Select Dates) icon to select the applicable date(s) for time entry. You can select a single date or multiple dates within the pay period. After selecting the dates, close the calendar view.
Step 5: Enter number of hours
In the Quantity field, enter the number of hours for each day you’re submitting time.
As an example, if you select 5 days and are reporting 8 hours per day, enter 8 in the Quantity field.
Select Ok.
Step 6: Confirm Time Entry
Confirm the dates, hours, title and time entry reason (eg Hours Worked or Vacation), prior to saving or submitting time card entry.
Step 7: Save and Close or Submit
You can save your time card to add or edit it later or you can submit your time card to your supervisor for their review and approval.
To Save but not Submit your time card, navigate to the top of the page and select Actions then select Save and Close.
If your time card is complete and ready to be submitted to your line manager for approval, select Submit.
What’s next:
Once your time card is submitted, your supervisor will receive a notification to review and approve or reject your time card. You will receive an email after your supervisor takes action on your time card; if your time card is rejected or sent back to you for corrections, you must edit and resubmit your time card for approval and processing.
