Payroll Time Approval Workflow Tasks
Time consumer sets with Payroll selected start these approval tasks. The ELA task starts when the payroll consumer configuration uses entry-level approval.
Here's what the actionable tasks do:

By default, the TimeCardApproval task evaluates payroll time entries only when the entire time card is ready for approval.
The TimeCardApprovalFYI task notifies individuals when approvers approve or reject their time entries for the specified time card period. You can disable this task so that individuals don't get notified about approved or rejected time cards. Because this task isn't rule based, you can't configure it to disable only one notification. For example, you can't disable the notification about approved time cards while keeping enabled the notification about rejected time cards.
