Fixed term jobs are a great option when you need to hire the same Sidekick for an extended period, such as 3 months. With fixed-term jobs, you can engage a Sidekick for a specific duration and seamlessly roll over their timesheets on a weekly basis.
When to roll over the job
To ensure Sidekicks can submit a weekly timesheet and receive payment within Sidekicks' standard pay period (Monday - Sunday), fixed-term jobs need to be rolled over weekly. You have the option to do this in advance, or at the time of approving the Sidekick’s weekly timesheet.
Tip: We recommend selecting the advance option to notify the Sidekick in advance that they are required for next week's rosters
Rolling over the job in advance
Click ‘Requests’ on the left navigation bar, and select the job you wish to roll over
Click ‘Extend job’ which shows above the request
Set the new pay period for the next week Monday-Sunday, and click ‘Confirm’
Rolling over the job while approving timesheets
Click ‘Requests’ on the left navigation bar, and select the request in ‘Review and complete’ status
Approve Sidekicks timesheets, and you’re provided a new screen to set a new pay period.
Select ‘I want to continue this job’, set the new pay period for the next week Monday-Sunday, and click ‘Confirm’
When you no longer need Sidekicks to attend, leave the new pay period blank and simply approve their timesheets. This prevents the job from rolling over to the next week.
