In version 13, the email can be enhanced to include colors, bold, underline, and other HTML formatting. -

The Timesheets by Resource portlet gives the ability to highlight the time periods where resources are working overtime or working less than 25 hours a week. The filter requires timesheet Start Date and End Date to be provided. Additionally, the information can be filtered by Resource, Resource ID, OBS Unit, Employment Type, Resource Manager, Open for Time, and Active status. This portlet displays Resource, Resource ID, Active (yes/no), Employment Type, Primary Role, Resource Manager, and Timesheet Hours Flag. The flags are set with the logic- Yellow = timesheets not posted / zero hour timesheets
- Green = where number of hours posted is > 25 and less than 45
- Red = where number of hours posted is < 25 or > 45

The Time By Resource and Investment - PM portlet shows time spent on projects where the logged in user is the project manager. This portlet is used to get a snapshot of investments and the time that has been put against them at the individual resource level for the projects that user has access to. This portlet is used for determining what resources have put time against specific investments and can be used to see where resources are spending their time or to help rationalize ETCs for remaining work for planning purposes. The portlet may be filtered by time-scale, date, resource or investment to narrow the search results. -
The Time by Assignment portlet displays time logged to assignments for all investments the logged in user has security rights to view - pulling data from the timeslices.

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.

Examples of such processes would be CA’s OOTB Project Manager Approval or the Timesheet Approval - PM and RM process found on RegoXchange. -
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 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. -
A Resource Calendar sub-object is populated by a non-object-specific process, executed by the “Execute a Process” job, which can be scheduled. The first 7 rows of the sub-object display the standard week from the base calendar, including columns for Day of Week, Is Workday (checked/unchecked), Shifts, and work Hours available. The remaining rows display calendar exceptions, including columns for Day of Week, Exception Date, Is Exception (checked), and work Hours available. If exception changes to a workday, Is Workday column is checked, and Shifts also display. If exception changes to a non-workday, Is PTO column is checked. Resource Calendar object is filterable by Calendar Entry Type (All, Calendar Exception, Day of Week), Day of Week, Exception Date Range, Is Workday, Is Exception, Is PTO, and power filter. -
The Timesheet Approval - Auto process is an auto-start process that begins once the resource submits his or her timesheet. This process bypasses a Resource Manager approval and allows the user to post his or her timesheet. 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:- The timesheet has less than 40 hours.
- The timesheet has 40 or more hours.
- The resource’s availability is less than 8hrs/day.
