Personal Time Reports Approval

ELMA users can auto-approve their time reports. This feature allows them to approve their own time reports without submitting for approval. This means that the executor and the approver are the same person.

This option is available to the users with required access permissions. Administrators can assign these permissions in Administration – Users – Access Settings – Global Access Settings – Tasks – Personal Time Reports Approval . By default, the permissions are assigned to the "Personal Time Reports Approval" user group.

To approve your own time report:

create a time report;
click Send in the report toolbar.

In the dialog box (Fig. 1), click Yes to confirm approval of your time report.

If the user has no access permissions for this operation, a warning message will appear on the page (Fig. 2):
