Once the employee has submitted their attendance sheets, as a supervisor, you need to approve the employee's attendance sheets. But if you are a supervisor with multiple subordinates, you can now simply approve the attendance sheets in bulk.
Step 1 - Go to Attendance → Approve Attendance Sheets
Step 2 - Select the pay policy from the dropdown.
Note: If Last Completed Pay Period Only is unchecked, the system loads all Submitted Attendance Sheets for the Pay Policy.
Step 3 - Select the attendance sheets that need to be approved and click "Approve All." Upon clicking, the system shows the confirmation message as follows.
Step 4 - Click "Yes" to approve the selected employee attendance sheets.
Note:Attendance sheets can now be approved, rejected, or canceled using Citra.

Approval Restrictions for Unpublished Rosters and Unapproved Leaves
To protect the accuracy of payroll data, attendance sheet approval can be blocked while the underlying roster or leave position is not yet final. These restrictions are switched on in the Attendance configuration.
- Restrict Attendance Sheet Approval for Unpublished Roster Shifts - when enabled, attendance sheets containing unpublished roster shifts cannot be approved.
- Restrict Attendance Sheet Approval for Unapproved Leave Days - when enabled, attendance sheets containing dates with unapproved leave cannot be approved.
When approval is blocked, the approver is shown exactly what is holding it up - for example "Date(s) with Unpublished Roster Shift(s)" or "Date(s) with Unapproved Leave(s)" - along with how many attendance sheets are affected. Where only some sheets are blocked, use Approve Eligible to approve the ones that have no pending issues.
Note: Approval stays unavailable until all pending actions on the sheet are completed - publish the roster shifts or approve the leave, then approve the attendance sheet.
