Portlet to show the stage of any Action Item triggered by Timesheet submission. Portlet allows for a period start date input, filters by Resource, Approver, Action Item Status and Timesheet Status. A link to the action item is provided for direct action by review if needed. This portlet is only for the clients who have established a process that triggers on Timesheet Status change to Submitted and to send Action Items to the person responsible for timesheet approval/validation i.e. PM for project tracking and/or RM for overall approval of the timesheet. The portlet won’t display any data if there are no timesheet Action Items. Examples of such processes would be CA’s OOTB Project Manager Approval or the Timesheet Approval - PM and RM process found on RegoXchange. -
This is a standalone process that can be run by an admin to change the ownership of MUX views from a specified user to another specified user. The process contains a single custom script, which has the following parameters that must be updated prior to running the process:- currentOwnerId (required): Resource ID for the current Owner (unique_name from srm_resources table)
- newOwnerId (required): Resource ID for the new Owner (unique_name from srm_resources table)
- viewCode (optional): Code for the specific view to update - leave blank if you want to transfer ownership for all views (odf_ui_views.code)
- Navigate to the process called Admin - MUX Views - Change Ownership.
- Navigate to the Start Step tab, Click on the Update Owner action, and click the Custom Script Parameters tab.
- Enter the Resource ID for the current view owner into the currentOwnerId parameter.
- Enter the Resource ID for the new owner into the newOwnerId parameter.

- Run the process via Organizer in Classic.

Over time notifications can build up in the CA PPM system and should be purged, so as not to hinder performance. The SQL statements mentioned in the tech doc can be implemented within a process in CA PPM to either purge notifications on an ongoing basis or remove all of them at once. -
JasperSoft as two font databases – one for display and one for pdf exporting. Not all fonts in the display database are in the exporting database. If you find you are not getting the proper fonts when exporting to PDF from JasperSoft this tech trick will show you how to add the missing font so your report exports as expected. -
This portlet pulls back the Availability and Allocation totals by Role between a user-specified Start and Finish Date, then the user can drilldown to look at the information for Applications. The Time Period filter allows for comparing these values across different timeframes (monthly, weekly, quarterly, annual) as desired. Other filters allow for looking at Active or Inactive Roles (or both) and including Active or Inactive Projects (or both) in the totals. -

The Current Proxies portlet provides a user with an overview of all the resources in the system currently using a proxy. This portlet is helpful to determine a proxy if a user is currently out of the office. The portlet provides several pieces of information related to the resource including: resource names, proxy, start date, end date, days remaining, total days, and if the proxy is active. The user may filter by resource name, proxy name, proxy status (defaults to Yes), and start/end dates (defaults to the current date). -
This Process sends an email to every Action Item Assignee where the Due Date/Time has passed and the Status is either Open, or In Progress. Users may want to modify this stalker to include Status = Deferred. In addition, the Resource Manager for the Assignee receives a copy of the email. In order to generate emails, the SMTP gateway must be up and running and Resources must have a valid email address. -
Notify the PM with a list of tasks for their project as soon as the Timesheet is submitted. This is a good substitute for PM approval. When a timesheet is submitted, then the PM knows the time entered by person. This is an Auto-start process in Clarity named PM Time Notification - On Timesheet Submission and will be automatically spawned when a Timesheet is submitted. When the process is started it will be seen in the Initiated on the Processes tab. The process status can be monitored from Running to the Completed stage. The Progress when 100% and the Status is Completed, an email would have arrived to the Project Manager with subject: “Resource <Name> has entered the following time on your Investment(s) for the week starting <Timesheet Start Date> ”. This email will list the Investments managed by the PM where task was entered by the Resource submitting the timesheet. Each PM would get a separate notification. PM for project X notified, and PM for project Y gets notified in another email. Therefore, one timesheet may spawn out multiple emails. But, if both the Projects have the Same PM, then only a single email gets sent out. “Opt-out Timesheet Notifications" checkbox is provided on the Project for PM’s who do not want to get notified on those projects. -
The Roadmap Cloning process creates a clone of any existing roadmap. It should be run using the “Execute a Process” job. To specify a roadmap to clone the Start Step Action’s Custom Script Parameters need to be updated to include the proper roadmap ID in the templateCode field. -
The Populate Timesheets process converts task level ETC into time entered on the timesheet. The process relies on the resource “opting in” to the process by checking a new attribute called “Auto Populate Timesheet?”, as well as the project manager “opting in” at the project level via a new attribute called “Auto Populate Timesheet?” Once the resource opts in and the PM opts in, the process will create a timesheet for the resource, pulling in the ETCs for the tasks that week and moving them to the actual hours. Once the process runs, an email will be sent to the resource letting them know the hours have been applied.
