Open a Timesheet

You can use Vision Navigator to open and update your Vision timesheets.

Prerequisites: Your access to Navigator Timesheet requires the following:

• Access to the Navigator Employee Workspace and Timesheet application as defined on the Navigator tab of Vision > Configuration > Security > Roles.
• You are linked to an active Vision employee record.
• Your timesheet processing capabilities also depend on how your system administrator defines settings in Vision. Refer to the options listed in Checklist: Configuring Vision for Navigator Timesheets before you complete this procedure. Contact your system administrator if you have questions.

To open a timesheet, complete the following steps:

1. In Navigator, click Navigator Workspace and select Employee. Navigator first attempts to open a timesheet automatically by performing the following:
   • Checks for a timesheet for the current date in an available timesheet period. If there is a timesheet and its status is In Progress or blank (for example, Missing), the timesheet is opened in edit mode.
   • If there is a timesheet with a Submitted status and your employee access is Staff or Group without edit rights, you must have the Allow staff users to resubmit timesheets option selected to open a submitted timesheet in edit mode. Otherwise, the timesheet displays in read-only mode.
   • If there is a timesheet for the current date and period, but its status is Approved or Posted, the timesheet is not opened and Navigator automatically displays the timesheet for the next period.
   • If there are no timesheets available, a message displays and the timesheet does not open.
2. If Navigator does not open a timesheet automatically, or if you need to open a different timesheet, click Timesheet Tools and select Open. The Open timesheet dialog box displays.
3. Select a timesheet and click Open.
