This is workflow that allows you to copy documents from one item to another. This can be altered to move documents from any place they are stored to another. In this particular instance, the focus is on moving documents from one risk to another. When creating a risk that you want to copy from, utilize the attachments section of the page and the associated lookup. The lookup is filtered to only show those risks that already have documents associated with them. Upon clicking the save button, a process runs in the background to copy the requested documents from the requested risk to this newly created risk. -
The Populate Timesheets process converts task level ETC into time entered on the timesheet. The process relies on the resource “opting in” to the process by checking a new attribute called “Auto Populate Timesheet?”, as well as the project manager “opting in” at the project level via a new attribute called “Auto Populate Timesheet?” Once the resource opts in and the PM opts in, the process will create a timesheet for the resource, pulling in the ETCs for the tasks that week and moving them to the actual hours. Once the process runs, an email will be sent to the resource letting them know the hours have been applied. -

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.
