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
Improved User Experience
Streamlines the timecard process for the majority of campus employees, including all student employees.
Simple, Intuitive Design
Supports straightforward time entry and leave-taking for users.
Job-Specific Timecards
Each timecard will correspond to a specific job, so employees with multiple jobs will complete a separate timecard for each job.
Efficient Time Entry Tools
The copy/paste feature lets users enter time across multiple days. Users can set date ranges for entering the same information on multiple days.
Focused Supervisor Access
Supervisors can view only their direct reports' job information and hours, ensuring focused oversight.
Streamlined Late Timesheet Process
Employees and supervisors can complete and submit late timesheets directly within the application, eliminating the need for paper forms or processes outside of the timekeeping system.
Training
Time Reporting System (TRS) training is coming in summer 2026.
