This document will outline how to set up your username and password, so that you can begin using the PPL’s BetterOnline™ web portal. Once you are registered you will be able to use BetterOnline™ for: Managing your Budget, Approving your Employee’s E-Timesheets, Viewing the status of your Employee’s E-Timesheets.

You can view a timesheet anytime you like. You will notice when a timesheet has been saved by your employee, you will only be able to review the saved information by clicking the “Review” button. Any notes that the employee entered will show in the outlined area. The timesheet will have the status of “Saved” and will only have the “Review” button available. If the employee has submitted to you for approval, it will have a status of “Submitted” you will need to either approve or reject a timesheet. PPL cannot pay timesheets unless they have been approved by you.

After you have reviewed your timesheet and determined that it is accurate you should approve the timesheet for payment. To approve the timesheet select the “Approve” button. After selecting the “Approve” button you will see the screen on the next page. The message at the top of the screen will indicate that “This timesheet is now approved.” You will still have the option to print a paper copy of the timesheets for your records. You can print the approved timesheet by selecting the “Show printable version (PDF)” at the bottom of the screen.
