What You Need to Know
In October 2026, the majority of campus employees, including staff, academic employees, and all students, will transition to Time Reporting System (TRS). This timekeeping system is hosted by UC Irvine and is currently used by six other UC locations.
Highlights of TRS
- Intuitive Design - Simplifies daily time entry and streamlines time-off requests, making it easier to track your hours and manage leave.
- Efficient Time Entry Tool - The copy/paste feature lets users enter time across multiple days. Users can set date ranges within a single pay period to enter the same information on multiple days.
- Manages Multiple Jobs - Employees with more than one campus job, including student employees, will have a separate timecard for each job, simplifying hour entry and supervisor approval.
- Streamlines Late Timesheet Process - Employees and supervisors can submit late timesheets directly in the application, eliminating paper forms.


Training
Time Reporting System (TRS) training is coming in the summer of 2026.
