Hours not delivered by an instructor: check before payroll

Built by Edusign · Instructors

Each month, HR has the hours not delivered by each instructor before sessional pay is calculated. Fewer back-and-forth exchanges, and pay based on attendance signatures.

Why turn on this alert

Sessional pay is calculated on the hours actually delivered. The alert sends HR the month's discrepancies, with no spreadsheet to reconcile.

  • HR knows the hours not delivered before payroll.
  • The webhook can feed your HR tool directly.
  • Fewer back-and-forth exchanges with the student office.
