Functional Roles

Functional roles are an important and flexible feature in Deltek Time & Expense. You can set up your own functional roles and assign rights as needed to supervisors. You can also use functional roles to direct workflow through the system. In previous versions, the number of functional roles was limited and assigned specific names. Starting with version 5.1, you can create the functional role name and the rights assigned to each.

Please review the "Functional Roles" section in the Deltek Time Collection Getting Started Guide for more information.

When do I use the Functional Roles screen?

Use this screen when you initialize Deltek Time & Expense with ESS or any time you need to add, edit, or delete a functional role.  

You cannot delete the following Functional Role Codes from the system: " PSPVSR," " BSPVSR," " PADMIN," " BADMIN," "SYSTEM," and " EMPL."
