Freelancer Tutorial
Step By Step Process
The ONYX Freelancer Timesheet System simplifies how freelancers submit and manage session details. Freelancers log in securely, fill out a timesheet, and submit it for student approval. The student receives a link to review and sign the form digitally.
Once signed, the freelancer gets an email with a PDF copy of the completed timesheet for their records. The system tracks the entire process, making it easy to manage, verify, and store timesheets in one place.
