Are you on an older version of CA PPM? Do you want to understand the value of the new features and functions in recent versions? Have you seen the new UX and do you wonder when is the right time to move over? This class is a demonstration of the new UX, new features in both classic and new UX, and the value of these features for customers. -
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.
