  • The Timesheet Detail report is a transaction based Jaspersoft report that does not require the Load Jaspersoft Datawarehouse job to be run.  The report will pull real-time data from the transaction tables in Clarity.  This report can be run from either the Advanced Reporting or Reports and Jobs area within Clarity. The Timesheet Detail report displays timesheet entries for a resource and time period. The timesheet entries include tasks, other time, incidents, and indirect time. The report shows the timesheet hours by day and in total, with any notes related to the time entry.
  • The My Time portlet provides the logged in user with the ability to view his or her time by project by time period without having to go into each period individually on the Timesheets page.  This portlet uses the actual timeslices to retrieve data.  It displays the amount of time worked per week, month or quarter on projects. The user may specify the dates, time-scaled value and the project name.  The portlet also provides a Total to Date, which shows the total number of actuals for that resource on that assignment.
  • The Enhanced Time Tracking Stalker – RM workflow process automatically sends a single email to Resource Managers which contains a list of any of their resources that have not submitted their timesheet for a prior open time period.  The email informs the RM if their resources are submitting their timesheets on time.  The email includes a table that provides this information for each resource: Resource Name, Time Period, Timesheet Status and Total Hours saved on the timesheet with links to the timesheet in the Modern User Experience of Clarity. These notifications will help to ensure that time is being posted and approved in a timely manner.
  • This training document is a Rego Consulting Quick Reference Guide to assist resource managers with the approval of timesheets via the Review & Approve tab.

Doc reviews accessing and selecting timesheets, reviewing submitted timesheets, approving timesheets, approving multiple timesheets, returning timesheets and the timesheet grid.
  • The Missing Time report is a transaction based Jaspersoft report that does not require the Load Jaspersoft Datawarehouse job to be run.  The report will pull real-time data from the transaction tables in Clarity.  This report can be run from either the Advanced Reporting or Reports and Jobs area within Clarity. The Missing Time report displays resource available hours, timesheet hours entered, and timesheet hours missing by resource and time period. The report can be grouped by resource manager or OBS level. The report also has an option to calculate missing time based on timesheet status or resource availability. The charts include a summary of timesheets across the periods included in the report. The Timesheet Count Summary displays the number of timesheets that are completed, partially completed, or missing for the time periods. The Timesheet Hours Summary displays the number of hours grouped by resource availability, timesheets entered, timesheets missing, and overage.
  • Rego’s training video that walks through the Time Entry and Approval process for Clarity PPM – Modern User Experience.  This video was created using Clarity PPM version 15.6.
  • The process is built to clear the random timesheet locks that happens occasionally.  There are three Processes and one lookup component and one job definition in the package.
    • PRLock (Timesheets) Record Removal (ID: rego_prlock_rec_rmvl). This process requires PRNAME, PRTABLENAME and PRRECORDID from PRLock Table.
      • The Lookup PRLock Check (Timesheet) (Id: REGO_PRLOCK_CHECK) should be used to update the GEL parameters for the above process.
    • PRLock (Timesheets) Record Removal All (ID: rego_prlk_rc_rmv_all) This deletes ALL prtimesheet locks.
    Or
    • Rego Remove Timesheet Locks (ID: rego_rmv_ts_locks). This process is run as a job “PrLock Clear for Timesheet Locks” which performs the same functionality as the above two processes. The process and job definition are separate XOG files.
  • The Rego PowerBI Reporting Suite features close to 100 free PowerBI reports, designed to enhance project management and reporting capabilities.
  • This training document is a Rego Consulting Quick Reference Guide to assist resource managers with the adjusting of timesheets.  This doc references version 16.2.1 views.

  • 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 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.
  • This portlet provides a view into the number of timesheets that were expected to be completed for a specified time period(s) as well as the number of timesheets that were completed and the percent complete.  This can also be filtered by OBS so that a company can see timesheet compliance at the OBS level.
  • Rego’s Clarity Adoption Metrics package consists of two sets of metrics: Project metrics, and Resource metrics. Project metrics measure how effectively project managers are using Clarity to manage their projects. Resource metrics measure how effectively resource managers are using Clarity to manage resources. Metrics are scored on a scale of 0 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater adoption and use. All metrics can be viewed numerically or graphically, and can be broken out by OBS. In addition, metric data can display as a 12-month rolling history to help identify trends. Project metrics can also display by lowest / highest adoption rates for a specific resource metric or all resource metrics. There is a variety of way to view the Adoption Metric data, therefore, Rego has made this simple by creating an Adoption Metrics object that contains multiple tabs.  Each tab displays one or more of the Project or Resource Adoption Metrics.  Based on the nature of the Metrics some tabs will allow the ability to use a pull down menu to select a specific Adoption Metric.   There is also a Metrics trending view that pulls monthly snapshots of the metrics. Project metrics consist of the following:
    • Project Status Reporting – Measures how well PMs create and publish project status reports.
    • Project Risk Adoption – Measures how well Risks are being used and managed.
    • Project Issue Adoption – Measures how well Issues are being used and managed.
    • Project Schedule – Measures how well PMs create tasks and keep the project schedule current.
    • Project Baseline – Measures whether or not baselines exist.
    • Project Zero ETC’s – Measures how well the PM assigns resources to tasks with ETCs.
    • Project Past ETC’s – Measures how many improperly scheduled tasks the PM has.
    • Project Milestone / Key Tasks – Measures how well PMs create and manage Milestones / Key Tasks.
    • Project Schedule Variance – Measures how effectively PMs manage their schedules.
    • Project Effort Variance – Measures how effectively PMs manage their project efforts.
    • Project Budget Variance – Measures how effectively PMs manage budgets or cost plans.
    • Project Unfilled Roles – Measures project roles with allocations that are already started or starting within the next 30 days.
    • Project Data Quality – Measures how effectively PMs complete the Description, Stage, Progress, Objective, and Sponsor/Business Owner fields.
    • Project Commitment – Measures the hard allocations for a project over a two week time frame.
    Resource Metrics consist of the following:
    • Resource Clarity Usage – Measures how often users log into Clarity.
    • Resource Timesheet – Measures if timesheets post in a timely manner.
    • Resource Allocation – Measures how well RMs keep total resource allocations within the expected range for future time periods.
    • Resource Actualy Utilization – Measures how well Resource allocations match actuals.
    • Resource Allocation Date in the Past – Measures how many resources are open for time entry with dates in the past.
    • Resource Data Quality – Measures how well RMs complete the Resource Manager and Primary Role fields and optionally the Skill and Employment Type fields.
    • Resource Commitment – Measures how much resource available time is committed to projects.

  • The Rego Estimation Module Provides a more accurate estimate earlier in the idea/project lifecycle.
    • Is applied consistently so it can be improved.
    • Retains the data in Clarity to enable analysis.
    • Provides ongoing feedback by comparing estimates to current EAC.
    • Provides historical record of estimating for projects overall as well as change requests.
  • This video covers the process of accessing timesheets within Clarity, both as a team member and as a Project or Resource Manager.
  • The Timesheet Smoothing Process Workflow kicks-off when an individual timesheet is Submitted.  It splits each transaction on the timesheet when total timesheet actuals exceed total weekly availability for the resource.  Total weekly availability is determined by multiplying resource availability rate by the number of workdays in the week.  Non-workdays include weekends, holidays, PTO, and other scheduled days off, as set on the resource calendar.  If timesheet actuals <= total weekly availability, then the timesheet remains unchanged.  But if timesheet actuals > total weekly availability, then the following occurs. Each timesheet transaction is reduced by a calculated percentage that will reduce the total regular hours to equal the total weekly availability.  Then the remaining transaction hours are placed in a “Split” row for that task on that day, with an Input Type Code set based on a process parameter (which parameter can be set within the script action on the process). Note:  If a single day has overtime hours, but the total timesheet actuals <= total weekly availability, no splitting occurs.
  • Process sends an email to RM, for resources assigned, that indicates the allocation percentage for each resource for the next 6 weeks.  Email has links to each resource so that allocation modifications can be made as required.
  • 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 Time Tracking Stalker – Resource workflow process is used to notify resources that fail to submit a timesheet in a prior week. The workflow checks for active resources, hire/termination dates, track mode, and open for time entry. This process helps to ensure resources submit timesheets in a timely manner.  In version 13, the email can be enhanced to include colors, bold, underline, and other HTML formatting.
  • Is there a way to simplify time tracking? Time is a function 90% of companies use. What are ways to have time be less of a burden to users? How can you minimize the negative perception? This session will discuss options within CA PPM or outside CA PPM to make time tracking less of a burden for all.
  • Course Description:   Are you struggling to implement Agile tools at your organization alongside Clarity PPM? This class will review best practices for implementing Agile tools in conjunction with Clarity PPM while living in a bimodal world. We will discuss how Clarity PPM can govern both types of work and teams and how Agile tools should interface with Clarity PPM.
  • The Timesheet Audit portlet displays timesheet information in order to perform an audit.  The only required data needed to search the portlet is start and finish date. Additionally, you may narrow the results by filtering by resource, resource ID, OBS Unit, resource manager, timesheet status, project, and task. The portlet provides reporting on the following:
    • Resource
    • Resource ID
    • Email Icon of Resource (So the reviewer can quickly email the Resource)
    • Resource is Active
    • Resource Open for Time
    • Time Period (Start and Finish Dates)
    • Timesheet Status
    • Is Adjustment (If the timesheet is adjusted)
    • Timesheet Modified Date
    • Timesheet Posted Date
    • Timesheet Submitted By
    • Timesheet Approved By
    • Project
    • Task
    • Proposed ETC Hours
    • Pending Actual Hours
    • Total Actual Hours
  • The Auto-Approve Old Timesheets workflow process can be run through the "Execute a Process" job and may be used to quickly close out timesheets for a specified timeframe for period closure.  The workflow will execute a query that will automatically approve ALL (no matter the status of the timesheet) timesheets that have a time period start date before the Approve Date specified within the process itself.
  • The Missing Time by OBS portlet displays all missing or late timesheets for resources staffed within a specific OBS.   Resources will be included if they are open for time entry, have the track mode of ‘Clarity’ and have a timesheet that is not posted. The portlet accommodates for hire and termination dates.  Also, the portlet only shows resources that the active user has the security rights to view.   Administrators and the Project Management Office may use this portlet to determine the timesheet status of all resources within a specific OBS in open time periods. This portlet allows a user to quickly search by OBS and view all timesheets under that area. After selecting the OBS, the user can also filter on time period start date, Resource Manager and/or Project Manager. The portlet will display a ‘Stop Light’ indicator based on timesheet status, the status, period start, Resource Name, Resource Manager and any actual hours entered for the timesheet.
  • The Missing Time report provides insight into timesheet compliance by comparing available hours, entered hours, and missing hours for each resource over a selected time period. It can be grouped by resource manager or OBS level and offers flexibility to calculate missing time based on timesheet status or resource availability. The report includes summary charts showing timesheet completion rates and total hours, highlighting completed, partial, and missing timesheets as well as overages across reporting periods.
  • Aligning work to organizational strategy is a fundamental requirement in today's ever-changing marketplace.
