A process that: -
This is an automation to adjust the cost in financials (WIP) based on the standard weekly hours for salaried (Exempt) personnel. The process adjusts only the cost in WIP where the hours per week that are posted for a resource are more than the standard work week. The Posted hours in the timesheet and in WIP remain untouched. For the process to calculate correctly, all time in a given week needs to be accounted for, including all non-project time. The process has three input parameters as explained below:- wkStdHour: Standard Weekly Hours; this can be changed in the process gel script. The parameter is based on the organization standard work week. The default is set to 40 hours.
- xogBatchSize: The XOG batch size. This is used to upload data in batches to avoid high memory and performance issues. The default batch size is set to 50 records.
- username: The resource name that the process uses for uploading data. The default is set to admin.
- It will process all the timesheets in posted state provided the timesheet has not been adjusted earlier by this process and there are no pending transactions to be posted for it. Validation is made based on Notes field, which is populated once adjustment is done by the process.
- Notes field should not be modified in Script nor should be worked upon by any other process.
- All the invalid transactions should be cleared and post to WIP should be finished with no pending records.

The Grant Team Project Edit Rights workflow allows a project manager to grant Project – Edit Management rights to all users staffed on the project. This workflow saves not only the project manager time by allowing all users on the project to update information, but also saves the administrator time from granting each resource these rights individually. The process will also remove any rights from members that have been removed from the project. -
The Grant Booking Manager Rights to Book Resources workflow provides a resource’s Booking Manager with the rights to hard book a resource to a project. This workflow will remove unused rights, and then grant the rights needed to allow for booking of resources. The workflow also has the ability to add rights to not only the resource but also the resource manager, and resources that are assigned as proxies. If this functionality is not needed, it can easily be removed. -
The Time Tracking Stalker - RM workflow process automatically sends an email to Resource Managers for each one of their resources that have not submitted their timesheet for a prior open time period, thus informing the RM if their resources are submitting their timesheets on time. Project Managers will also benefit since the notifications will help to ensure that time is being posted against their projects in a timely manner, helping to provide them with an accurate view of time expended on the projects. -
The Grant Project Edit Rights workflow process allows a project manager to grant project edit rights to another user without contacting an administrator. The workflow uses the Out-of-the-box field for Business Owner. The script starts when the field is updated. It will assign project edit rights to whichever user is added to the Business Owner field. This process can be modified to grant project edit rights to any user within a project field. -
The Grant Approve Time to Proxy process utilizes the proxy feature within Clarity to assign timesheet approval and edit rights to a proxy for any resources that the user is the current resource manager for. The process, when run, will also remove any timesheet approval and edit rights for any users if the proxy has been removed or the resource manager has changed. This process is used for resource managers that will be out of the office. -
