Privilege Needed: Project Manager User
To enable Project Manager approval for a project, set the Project Approval in the Time section value to Yes when setting up a project. Any timesheets submitted while this value is Yes will require approval by the project manager for that project, (or by an alternate approver) before that timesheet can be set to Completed. If time is already submitted for the project before the Project Approval value is set to Yes, that time will not require approval by the project manager.
Displayed below is an example of all the projects that Frances B. Craig is the Project Manager for and has declared as requiring her approval. Pressing the Approve Time section under the Project Manger Menu, displays these project names. Once the stack of timesheets icon is pressed, this displays all the people that are applying time against that project (shown in the second image).
Below is an example of a Project Manager that has two timesheets that have been submitted for Approval. The project manager can see (1) The owner of the timesheet, (2) The time period of the timesheet, and (3) The current status of the timesheet.
The manager can now do 1 of 5 things. The manager can approve all the
timesheet by pressing (
),
disapprove all the timesheet by pressing (
),
approve the timesheet
without even looking at it by pressing the (
) icon or disapprove it without looking at it by pressing the (
) icon. In most cases, the manager
will want to view the timesheet by pressing the (
) icon. When the project manager views the timesheet,
he/she will not see the entire timesheet, but rather, just time for that project he/she is
the project manager for.
