Accepting or Rejecting Time Sheets Before Back-Office Processing

If the Siebel application is integrated with the organization's back-office processing system, the final step of the time sheet approval process is for a finance professional to accept or reject a time sheet before it is passed to the back-office system for processing. For example, a time sheet might be rejected if it were incorrectly formatted for transfer to the back-office system, or if it were in conflict with a policy of the organization.

The following procedure explains how to accept or reject time sheets that have been approved by the appropriate managers. Such time sheets have the Status field set to Acceptable, and they record a total of reported hours that is within the approval limits of the final approvers. Any end user who has access to the Approved Time Sheets view can perform this procedure.

To accept or reject time sheets before back-office processing

1. Navigate to the Time Sheets screen.
2. From the visibility filter, select Approved Time Sheets.
3. In the Time Sheets list, select one or more time sheets records that you want to accept or reject for back-office processing.
4. In the Time Sheets list, click Process or Reject, according to your choice.

   The value of the Status field changes to Processed or Revoked, respectively.
