If you are happy with the information in the Timesheet, you can click the Approve button.

This will send a notification to the employee, asking them for more information.
Click the Raise Query button.
This will open a dialog box for you to write the query message.
Once the employee has responded to the query, you will be notified by email.
Queries and the relevant comments sections can also be found from the Timesheet Approvals page.
Clicking on the speech bubble icon will show the full query history.
You can raise as many queries against a Timesheet as is necessary, until you're happy to Approve it.

To do this, set the Status dropdown to 'New' then click 'Show Missing Timesheets', this will give you the opportunity to create the Timesheet and then add a Query.
Clicking 'Create Timesheet & Raise Query' will then bring up a dialogue box that will allow you to query this with the employee.
