If your organization wants managers to approve timesheets without displaying timesheets to complete for the manager, you can control the visibility of timesheets in WX by the policy options.
To enable manager approval without requiring timesheets:
-
Create a policy or policies for team members who need to complete timesheets. Select Timesheet and choose a Timesheet Pattern for the timesheets.
