The Enhanced Time Tracking Stalker – Resource workflow process is used to notify resources who failed to submit a timesheet for the prior time period they must take action. The workflow checks for active resources (by using the hire and termination dates, their track mode and that they are open for time entry). Each resource who meet the criteria receives an email asking them to submit their outstanding timesheet(s). The email includes a table that contains this information: time period, timesheet status and any hours currently saved on the timesheet. All outstanding timesheets are included in the table with links to the timesheet in the Modern User Experience side of Clarity. This process helps to ensure the timely submission of timesheets. -
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. -

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. -

This process workflow with gel script forces billable hours on timesheet down to 40 hours, and sets overtime hours to non-billable. Timesheets with 40 or fewer hours are not touched. Process kicks off upon submission of timesheet. Steps are:- Determine if timesheet has > 40 hours. If so, proceed.
- Create a SPLIT row for each timesheet row, with Input Type Code = Non-Bill.
- Divide 40 by total timesheet ours. Store this value.
- Multiply each timesheet cell by the stored value, and enter the result into that cell.
- Take the difference (original cell value – new cell value), and enter in same cell on Split row.
- The end result will be 40 hours total on Billable rows, and overtime hours on Non-Billable rows.

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.
- 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.
- PRLock (Timesheets) Record Removal (ID: rego_prlock_rec_rmvl). This process requires PRNAME, PRTABLENAME and PRRECORDID from PRLock Table.

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. -

Course description: “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.” Download file is the presentation slide deck. -
