Assigning permissions for timesheet comments

Users can enter comments on the timesheets with either the field in the Comments column or the Comments pop-up. Assigning user permissions for timesheet comments is slightly different than other timesheet elements. Users can edit timesheet comments if these conditions are met:

  • Users have ACT or VIEW permissions on the WRKS_COMMENTS field.
  • One of these conditions is true:
    • Users have ACT or VIEW permissions on the TS_MANAGE_COMMENTS field.
    • The WRKS_COMMENTS field is not configured as a HiddenUI field type.

To configure the field type of the WRKS_COMMENTS field:

  1. Select Timesheet.
  2. Click the Turn ON config mode icon.
  3. Select an employee's timesheet.
  4. Click the localization (orange diamond) icon next to the Comments field on the right side of the timesheet.
    The Field Localization window is displayed for the WRKS_COMMENTS field.
  5. Select a field type from the Field UI drop-down list.
  6. Click Save and close the window.
  7. Click the Turn OFF config mode icon.
