Beginning November 1, 2025, the University of Utah will begin using MyTime, the new UKG (formerly Kronos) timekeeping system.
MyTime features updated University branding, a modern layout, and streamlined tools to make recording time and requesting leave easier.
When you visit kronos.utah.edu starting November 1, 2025, you’ll see two sign-in options:
Sign in to Kronos:
View or make edits to time for the pay period ending 10/31/2025.
Kronos access will remain available through at least noon on November 3 for reviewing, updating, and approving the 10/31 pay period.
Sign in to MyTime:
Use this system for all pay periods beginning 11/01/2025 and moving forward.
All new time entry and approvals will take place in MyTime.
Yes. How you record your time will remain the same, depending on how you currently track your hours:
• Timeclock employees: You will continue to use the physical timeclock stations to punch in and out.
• Timestamp employees: You will continue to record your punches electronically using your computer or mobile device.
• Timesheet employees: You will continue to manually enter your time worked on the online timesheet.
• Salaried employees: The new timecard will have an hourly-style layout, but you will continue to report only leave time (such as vacation or sick leave) as you do now.
No. Salaried employees will continue to follow the same process as before and should only record leave time (such as vacation or sick leave) when used.
While the new MyTime timesheet layout may look similar to an hourly timecard, salaried employees do not need to enter daily work hours. The system will automatically process their regular pay based on salaried status.
If you are unable to access your timecard or your time entry method appears incorrect (for example, if you see a timeclock option when you normally use a timesheet), contact your manager.
Your manager will work with your department’s Payroll Specialist to review your access and make any necessary updates.
No. Pay periods and pay dates will remain the same.
MyTime will follow the current University payroll schedule, so employees will continue to be paid according to the same bimonthly pay cycles as before.
No. Payroll deadlines and approval steps remain the same.
• Employees should continue entering and submitting their time as usual each pay period for approval.
For reference, visit the Payroll Schedule and Deadlines webpage for detailed pay period and processing information.
No. Paycodes/earning codes such as SIC (Sick), VAC (Vacation), and others will remain the same.
No. The process for recording accruals, holidays, and other paid leave will remain the same in MyTime.
Employees and managers will continue to enter and approve these items as they currently do-only the system interface has been refreshed for ease of use.
You will continue to view your paychecks in CIS by selecting the View Paycheck tile.
MyTime does not replace or change where pay information is accessed. Payroll processing, deductions, and pay schedules will all remain the same.
No. The transition to MyTime will not affect your direct deposit.
Direct deposit details are housed in another system and are not connected to MyTime. Employees will continue to receive pay as usual.
Employees can update their direct deposit information by following the instructions in the Direct Deposit Help Guide (PDF).
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for accessing and updating your banking information securely.
No. Using MyTime to request and approve time off is optional. Departments may continue using their current process for requesting and approving time off outside of MyTime if preferred.
However, all leave time - such as vacation, sick, and personal preference - must still be entered in MyTime when used so that leave balances and accruals remain accurate.
Tip: Departments can decide whether to manage requests directly in MyTime or maintain their existing method - as long as all leave taken is recorded in the system.
Any time off that was requested and approved in Kronos before October 6, 2025, will automatically transfer to MyTime.
If you entered a time-off request after October 6 for dates on or after November 1, you’ll need to submit that request again in MyTime once the new system is live.
Employees should first consult the MyTime FAQs and training videos in LearningHub for guidance.
If additional help is needed, employees should reach out to their manager or time approver for assistance.
If the issue cannot be resolved at the department level, the manager or time approver can contact Human Resources for additional support.
