Selectively Approving/Rejecting/Editing Time

When you click the Next icon in the Approve/Reject option after selecting timesheets for editing, approval or rejection, the timesheet(s) for the selected employees display.

Note: If a lock is placed by the time the approver selects and loads the employee timesheet(s) in the approve/reject detail screen, the locked timesheet will not load and it will be indicated in the "Timesheets in Use" listbox.

Review Window for Selected Employee

If you selected timesheets for more than one employee, the selected timesheet(s) for the first listed employee displays. If you selected more than one timesheet for an employee, all timesheets and rows can be viewed using the available scroll bars.  The timesheet always identifies the employee, the number of selected employee timesheets in (1 of x) format, and the week ending date. The Legend displays in the upper left so you will always know the status of time you are maintaining. After approving/saving time, click the Next icon to display the timesheet(s) for the next employee. Click the Back icon to return to the Prompt.
