Laurel simplifies timekeeping by collecting your work activities and displaying them in a review-ready timesheet. As a delegate, you can efficiently manage time entries for others by viewing, editing, and submitting them. Here's everything you need to know.


Logging in to Laurel Web App

To access your delegator’s timesheet and manage time entries, you only need to log in to the Laurel web-based app:

  1. Open any browser and head to app.laurel.ai.

  2. Log in using your SSO credentials.


Setting Up Delegate Access

Your delegator must assign you as their delegate before you can access their timesheet.

For Delegators:

  1. Click on your initials in the bottom left corner of the Laurel window to access Account Settings.

  2. Select Identity and Access Management.

  3. Enter the delegate’s name or email in the Add Delegate field and click Add.

  4. Click Save.

Note: If you don’t see the delegate’s name, contact the Laurel team to ensure their account is created.


Switching Between Delegators

If you have access to multiple delegators’ timesheets, switching between them is easy:

  1. At the top left of your timesheet, click the Delegators dropdown menu.
