Timekeeper rates must be reviewed and approved by your client within Brightflag. If your submission has been rejected, it means your client chose not to approve the proposed rate.

📌 Important:

  • Brightflag Support cannot override or reverse client decisions regarding rate approvals or rejections.
  • You must contact your client directly to understand the specific reason for the rejection and what actions are needed.

🔹 How to Identify Why Your Timekeeper Rate Was Rejected

1️⃣ Navigate to the Timekeepers Section

  • Go to Menu > Timekeepers from the Brightflag dashboard.
  • This page displays a complete list of all timekeeper submissions for your currently logged-in client.

2️⃣ Locate the Rejected Timekeeper Submission

  • Find the timekeeper whose rate has been rejected.
  • The submission status will be labeled as Rejected.

3️⃣ Click on the Rejected Status

  • A pop-up window will appear displaying additional rejection details.

4️⃣ Review the Rejection Notes

  • The pop-up window will show:
    • The reviewer’s name
    • Any review notes from the client
  • These notes often provide the reason for rejection, helping you understand what adjustments are needed.


🔹 What to Do Next

Once you've identified the reason for the rejection, contact your client to clarify next steps.

🚀 Common reasons for rejection & solutions:

Rejection Reason How to Resolve It
Incorrect rate submission Ensure the rate aligns with previously agreed-upon terms.
Missing or incomplete information Review the submission and include all required details.
Does not meet client guidelines Adjust the rate based on your client’s billing policies or budget.

If adjustments are required, resubmit the corrected rate for client approval.
