In this lesson, as a project manager, you will learn how
to approve and reject timesheets that team members submit.
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 approve or reject a timesheet:
- In the Timesheets view, click the Timesheet
Approval tab.
- From the Users column, select a team member.
- Select the first week.
- To approve Task 1 only, in the Actions column, click the Approve
Task icon
.
- To review the submitter's notes for Task 2, click
the Timesheet Notes icon
.
- To reject Task 2 only, in the Actions column, click the Reject
Task icon
.
- Select the second week.
- To approve all of the tasks, click the Approve
Timesheet icon
.
- Select the third week.
- To reject all of the tasks, click the Reject
Timesheet icon
.
In the Work view, open the Schedule viewlet to review the
changes in the %C and %EC for the updated project. The percentages
reflect the approvals that you just made. This viewlet also shows
the updated %C for the approved task, and the planned dates will change
for the task that additional effort was approved for.
