Submitting a Timesheet for Approval

Submit a timesheet when you are done entering time on it.

Submitted timesheets are approved based on an approval policy created by the PPM administrator. If approvers are specified in the approval policy, a timesheet is automatically sent for approval when it is submitted. If the approval policy does not specify approvers, select approvers when you submit your timesheet.

Important: If your approval policy requires approval by a resource manager or supervisor and you have not been assigned one, you will not be able to submit your timesheet. Your PPM Administrator will need to assign a resource manager or supervisor (as required by the approval policy) before you can successfully submit your timesheet.

Note: Timesheets are due on the last work day of the time period.

To Submit your current Timesheet:

  1. Open the Timesheets application.
  2. By default your current timesheet displays. If your current timesheet is not displayed, click My Current Timesheet.

    For more information about changing the default view, see Changing the Default Timesheets View.
  3. Add any tasks necessary.
    For details on adding tasks to a timesheet, see Adding a Task to Your Timesheet.
  4. Add any non-project work necessary.
    For details on adding non-project work to a timesheet, see Adding Non-Project Work to a Timesheet.
  5. You can add a comment to the timesheet.
    For more information, see Adding Timesheet Comments.
  1. Click Submit for Approval to submit your timesheet.

    Your timesheet is submitted for approval or, if your approval policy gives you the option to select approvers, the Select Timesheet Approvers window displays. If a Timesheet Submit Comments dialog opens, type comments for the approver of the timesheet.
    Note: Submit Comments are not the same as Timesheet Comments and are seen only by the approver of the timesheet. For more information, see About Timesheet Comments.
  2. If the Select Timesheet Approvers window displays:
  1. Click Browse User Directory to select the approvers for your timesheet.
  2. If approval routing is enabled, to specify the order in which approvers are sent the timesheet, click a name in the list of approvers and then click Top, Up, Down, or Button to reposition the name in the list. The timesheet is sent to approvers based on their position in the list:  The person at the top of the list receives the timesheet first, the second person next, then the third person, etc.
  3. Click Submit to submit the timesheet to the approvers you selected, or Cancel to cancel the submission.
