In this lesson, you will learn how to submit a timesheet
as a team member who has been assigned tasks. You will enter information
about three weeks of work for two tasks and then submit the timesheets
to a project manager for approval. After you submit a timesheet, you
cannot edit it unless your project manager rejects it.
Before you begin this lesson:
- A project manager must assign to the team member two work breakdown
(WBS) elements, named Task 1 and Task 2, with planned start and finish
dates.
- The project manager must associate time codes to the project.
You can view the status of the project in the Schedule
viewlet in the Work view. Note the percent complete (%C) and percent
effort complete (%EC) for your project.
To submit a timesheet:
- Open the Timesheets view and select the My Timesheet tab. If you have multiple tasks with the same name and are not sure
which project they belong to, in the Actions column, click the Context
Tree icon
to view the project hierarchy.
- Select a week.
- Enter the hours that you worked on Task 1 and Task 2 by
double-clicking on the fields for each day.
- In the Actions column, click the Timesheet Notes icon
.
Enter notes about Task 2 in the Submitter Notes field:
describe why this task took longer to complete than necessary.
- Click Submit.
- Select a second week.
- Enter the hours that you worked on Task 1 and Task 2 during
that week.
- Enter the percent complete (%C) for each task.
- Optional: Enter any additional effort that
you require.
- Click Submit.
- Select a third week.
- Enter the hours that you worked on Task 1 and Task 2 during
that week.
- Click Submit.
You have submitted three timesheets. In the next lesson, you
will learn how a project manager approves or rejects those timesheets.
