Field help (PTESTA3)

Use this field to filter the employee time records to be selected by the current work in progress status of the time entry line. The following stages are associated with the validation process of a time entry record:

All time entry records must first be validated then controlled (mandatory if the PJMTIMENT - Time entry control phase parameter (TC chapter, PJM group) is set) before they can be approved then posted.

• Validated, if the time entry line is complete and has been validated, or a new time entry line has been created at Validated status (the PJMTIMAUTO - Time entry auto. validation parameter (TC chapter, PJM group) is set to Yes).
  Validation that the time recorded is correct is usually made by the employee or user that entered the time entry record, or by a time entry administrator.
• Controlled, if the time entry line is complete and has been validated and controlled.
  All time entry records must be "controlled" before they can be approved if the PJMTIMENT - Time entry control phase parameter (TC chapter, PJM group) is set to Mandatory. The "control" phase is usually carried out by a project manager or a project administrator. Whatever the role of the manager or administrator, they must be authorized as such in their function profile, as defined in their user record. See Note below.
• Approved, if the time entry line is complete and has been validated and controlled (optional phase), and is approved for posting.
  Approval of a time entry line is usually made by a project manager or a project administrator.
• Rejected, if the time entry line is complete and has been validated and then rejected.
  Rejected time entry lines are redisplayed in the Time entry function (PJMTE) for correction.

 All time entry records must first be validated then controlled (mandatory if the PJMTIMENT - Time entry control phase parameter (TC chapter, PJM group) is set) before they can be approved then posted. Authorization for each stage of the processing cycle of a time entry record is controlled by the user record, as follows:

The Time entry check box must be selected to enter and validate your own labor time.

The Time entry check box and the Time entry administrator check box must be selected to enter labor time for a different user.

The assigned function profile must be authorized for function PTEVAL (Time approval) with option 4 to "validate" labor time for a different user.

The assigned function profile must be authorized for function PTEVAL (Time approval) with option 5 to "control", and option 6 to "approve" labor time.

To "reject" a time entry line, the assigned function profile must be authorized for function PTEVAL (Time approval) with option 7.
