Activating Status Updating for Time Sheets (Administrator)

---

The following procedure explains how to activate the workflow that updates a time sheet status of Approved to a status of Acceptable or Pending Next Approver. This depends on whether or not the most recent approver is authorized to approve the number of hours reported in the time sheet.

To activate status updating for time sheets

From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map > Business Process Administration > Workflow Processes.
In the Workflow Processes list, click Query.
In the Name field, enter Update Time Sheet Status, and then click Go.
In the Workflow Processes list, select the Update Time Sheet Status record with the highest value in the Version field, and then click Revise.

A new record is created with a status of In Progress and a higher version number.

In the Activation Date/Time field, enter a date and time after which you want status updating to be available.

NOTE:  If no value is specified, this functionality becomes available when you select the workflow and click Activate, as described later in this procedure.

In the Expiration Date/Time field, enter a date and time after which you want status updating to be unavailable.

If no value is specified, status updating remains available until manually deactivated.

In the Workflow Processes list, click Activate.

The Status field changes from In Progress to Active.
