#### Steps to View Your Time and Attendance Records:

1. **Navigate to the My Time Section**
   - Log in to your HRSimplified account.
   - From the left-side menu, under **Employee Self Service**, select **My Time**.
2. **Access Your Time Sheets**
   - Once in the **My Time** section, you will see three tabs:
     - **My Time Sheets**: Displays a log of all the time entries you've made.
     - **My Calendar**: Provides a calendar view of your logged work hours and tasks.
     - **Book Time**: Allows you to manually log work hours for a specific task or project.
   - Select the **My Time Sheets** tab to see a detailed list of all your logged time entries.
3. **View Time Entry Details**
   - Each time entry includes the following:
     - **Task Start and End Times**: Shows the start and end time of each recorded task.
     - **Duration**: The total time spent on the task.
     - **Billable**: Indicates whether the task is billable.
     - **Notes**: Additional notes associated with the time entry (if applicable).
   - You can filter the records by date or search for specific tasks using the search bar.
4. **Check-In/Check-Out Records**
   - If your company uses the check-in/check-out feature, you can view your attendance logs here.
   - The **Check In** and **Check Out** buttons allow you to start and end your workday directly from this screen.
   - Once checked in, the system will automatically track your work hours until you check out.
5. **Submit Time Entries for Approval**
   - If required, you can submit your time entries for approval by clicking the **Submit all Tasks for Approval** button at the top of the **My Time** page.
   - Your manager will then review and approve the time entries for payroll or billing purposes.
