27.3.2. Inbox/Outbox Portlet

When you login with your credentials and click on the timesheet application, you can view two dashboards displaying your inbox and outbox.

Inbox shows the timesheet that you need to work on. These include saved, submitted and approved timesheets. The following items are operations that can be performed on the timesheets in the inbox:

Outbox shows the timesheets that you have submitted for approval and are awaiting action by the approver. These timesheets can be viewed but cannot be edited or deleted by the user.

To view or edit the detailed timesheet, click on the view/edit icon. Approved timesheets cannot be edited. You can only modify the timesheets with Saved status, allowing you to update the timesheet duration, comments or add new attachments.

You can view the workflow history in the edit screen if the administrator has enabled the feature. To view a printer friendly screen of the timesheets, click on the printer icon.

You can delete timesheets by selecting the checkbox of the timesheet item and click Delete. If your inbox contains a large number of timesheets, you can archive them by selecting the timesheets and clicking the Archive button.

If you are the approver of timesheets, you will see the Bulk Approve button. Select the timesheets you want to approve using the checkboxes and click the Bulk approve button.

This button is not visible for users who do not have the privilege of approving timesheets.

You can approve your own timesheet, if you have been given the privilege.
