Prompt 2

What are the records used for timekeeping and how does technology affect this? Many of us have the experience of filling out time sheet and submitting it prior to receiving payroll check. What kind of supporting documents do you have to submit to prove the information shared on the time sheet? Do you have to get approval from your supervisor? Also, how would you determine how many of your working hours will be paid? What about Overtime?
