This field displays your last name, first name, and middle initial, as you submitted your name to your human resources department.

Employee Information Card
This pop-up screen, accessed when you click the Information icon that appears when you mouse over the right side of the Employee field, displays additional information for the employee, including the following:
  • Class - This field displays the timesheet class to which the employee is assigned. The timesheet class determines the business rules that will be in effect during timesheet entry.
  • Signature - If the timesheet has a status of Signed, this field displays the name of the signer and a time/date stamp. Normally, you sign your own timesheet. However, employees with the necessary access rights can sign another employee's timesheet with an interim signature.

    The Signature button is disabled when:

    • The employee who last signed the timesheet is viewing the timesheet.
    • A supervisor is viewing the timesheet and does not have modification rights.
    • The timesheet does not have any lines, or it has lines without any hour cells or cell comments entered.
    • A supervisor is viewing the timesheet and the status is Signed, Approved, Processed, or Rejected.

      If there are unsaved changes when you click the Sign button, the following message displays: Unsaved changes, do you want to save? You cannot sign the timesheet until you save.

      A number of validations are performed during the signing process. See the Validations Performed help topic for more information.

      When you save or sign your timesheet, errors or warnings may initially display in a pop-up message window. After you click OK, the message is saved in read-only format to the Warnings tab. In the case of warnings, you can close the pop-up window and sign your timesheet. Errors must be resolved before you can sign.

      If no warnings or errors display after you click the Sign button, or you close the warning pop-up window, your name and the time/date stamp display in the Signature field.

  • Approval - If the timesheet has a status of Approved, this field displays information about the person who approved it, along with a time/date stamp.
