  • The Lock Inactive Users workflow process will automatically lock all user accounts when their last login date was more than 60 days ago.  The process can be scheduled to run daily or can be run on demand when resource account cleanup is needed.
  • Based on the pre-determined schedule frequency, this job will send an email to Resource Managers that have a Resource meeting the criteria of: Average allocations are less than 100% where Resource(s) and Project(s) are active over the next two weeks. This serves as a reminder to Resource Managers to monitor and manage allocations. The contents of the email include a message indicating the Resource Manager has at least one Resource meeting this criteria and a table indicating the Resource and that resource’s average, next 90 days allocations.

  • The Timesheet Approval - RM process is an auto-start process that begins once the resource submits his or her timesheet. This process provides a checks-and-balances style to ensure that all resources entering time have entered the 40 hours. Once the timesheet is submitted, the process will lock the user’s timesheet to prevent editing. The process will then select the next action based on three different factors:
    1. The timesheet has less than 40 hours.
    2. The timesheet has 40 or more hours.
    3. The resource’s availability is less than 8hrs/day.
    If the user has submitted a timesheet with less than 40 hours, then the process will email the user informing him/her of issue, unlocks the timesheet, and changes the status to “Returned”. If the user has an availability of less than 8hrs/day or the timesheet has 40 or more hours, then an action item will be sent to the resource manager informing him/her of the timesheet. If the resource manager (RM) approves the action item, then the process will approve the timesheet and unlock the timesheet. However, if the RM selects “Return” on the action item, then the process will return the timesheet, mail the user that informing him/her that the timesheet has been returned, and unlock the timesheet.
  • 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 Give RM Calendar & Time Rights workflow process can be run through the "Execute a Process" job.  The workflow will execute a query that gives a Resource Manager Calendar Edit and Timesheet Edit rights for their resources. These rights are not inherent for Resource Managers when they are named as an individual’s resource manager.
  • The Grant Edit Time to Proxy process utilizes the proxy feature within Clarity to assign timesheet 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 edit rights for any users if the proxy has been removed or the resource manager has changed. This process would allow a resource manager to designate a subordinate the ability to enter time on other resources’ behalf while still going to the resource manager for approval.
