Verification : Not verified

[vmp]

What's the meaning of verification status showing "Not verified" in the employee's timesheet?

[shaunw]

It just means that the employee/supervisor have not yet verified the employees TimeSheet. Its for informational purposes only.

If you want to disable this feature, you can change the employees permissions, Permissions -> Attendance Group -> Punch -> Verify TimeSheet and set it to DENY.

Is there a way that will allow the Verify Timesheet option is always on the users timesheet? We have cases that employees might be out for a week or not able to verify their timesheet before our payroll administrator processes payroll.

As long as the pay period is still open employees can verify it. Once it is closed, they can no longer verify their timesheets though.

Today (Friday, 8/24) is the end of our pay period. Nobody has the option of approving their timesheet yet. Is there anyway to make this option always there?

[shaunw]

Sorry, I should have said as long as the pay period is open and its after the pay period end date, they can verify their timesheets.

So if today is the end of the pay period, they should be able to verify their timesheets tomorrow.

There is no way to change this without modifying the source code at this time. Most of our customers use this feature for legal purposes, so allowing employees to verify timesheets before the end of the pay period, or after a pay period is closed would render it useless for them.

I have no problem changing the source code to allow this. Is there any where in paticular this pulls from or do I just need to run through all of the files?

I believe the templates/timesheet/ViewUserTimeSheet.tpl is the only file you need to modify.

The following is the code in question:

Code: Select all

							{if $is_previous_time_sheet_verified == FALSE
								AND $current_time <= $pay_period_transaction_date
								AND is_object( $current_user ) AND is_object( $user_obj )
								AND $current_user->getId() == $user_obj->getId()}

Change to:

Code: Select all

							{if $is_previous_time_sheet_verified == FALSE
								
								AND is_object( $current_user ) AND is_object( $user_obj )
								AND $current_user->getId() == $user_obj->getId()}

and a little further down:

Code: Select all

								{elseif $time_sheet_verify == ''
										AND $pay_period_status_id != '' AND $pay_period_status_id != 20
										AND $current_user->getId() == $user_obj->getId()}

Change to:

Code: Select all

								{elseif $time_sheet_verify == ''
										AND $pay_period_status_id != '' 
										AND $current_user->getId() == $user_obj->getId()}

I have edited that file as you have specified, but when I close out of Timetrex and go back into it, nothing has changed. Is there something I need to refresh?

[shaunw]

You shouldn't need to "close out" and go back in, a simple refresh of the TimeSheet page should be enough to show the changes.

I just upgraded to 2.1.0 RC4 and still cannot get this to work. I did a copy and paste from what you had in the page and still do not get the option to show up. Below is what I have in the file:

{if $is_previous_time_sheet_verified == FALSE

AND is_object( $current_user ) AND is_object( $user_obj )
AND $current_user->getId() == $user_obj->getId()}

{elseif $time_sheet_verify == ''
AND $pay_period_status_id != ''
AND $current_user->getId() == $user_obj->getId()}

We may need to get a developer involved to get exactly what you want then. I would recommend contacting our sales department for more information.
