Yleistä

Marathonin voi asettaa niin, että esimiehet hyväksyvät työntekijöiden aikaraportit. Ohjelman voi myös asettaa niin, ettei aikaraportteja voi päivittää talousosastolle, ellei niitä ole hyväksytty.

Valmistelut

Set the authorizations such that the approvers have access to Approval of time reports. That is done in Administration: Authorization/Project accounting/Registration/Approval of time reports.

Select then whether the approving shall be per Group or per Working team. This is done in System: Base registers/PRO/Parameters, tab Template:Tab.

There is also possibility to choose specific fee codes to appear in separate columns in the time report approval function, and to set up so that only approved time reports can be updated.

Authorization

Select the groups/working teams that the user shall be authorized to approve in System: Base registers/General/Users. In the example below, Group is selected.

If the box All is checked, all employees regardless of group or working team are selectable.

In the program Approval of time reports the approver can then select group/working team. In the example below, group has been set in the parameters. The approver can only see groups that she/he is authorized to.
