Miscellaneous: 

The System Settings window allows you to customize specific characteristics of Xpede.NET. Refer to each option for specific details.

  1. Launch Internet Explorer or Netscape and enter the Internet address in the web address field. The web address will look similar to this:

    http://web server/virtual folder or http://IP Address/virtual folder

    The Xpede.NET Login window will open.

  2. The first time you enter the Xpede.NET Login window, enter "ADMIN" as the User ID and "access" as the Password. Logging in as ADMIN allows you to add and modify Xpede.NET users, set up and modify user access, and change the system settings.

  3. Select the company you want to use. If you want the system to "remember" your login password, mark the Allow Automatic Login option. Choose Log In to open the Administration window.

    We suggest you change the password of the admin user, which can be accomplished by clicking on the Change Administrator Password link. The password must be at least 6 characters long.

    The most recently used User Name and Company will default into the Xpede.NET Login window.
  4. Click on the Edit System Settings link in the upper left corner. The System Settings and Configuration window will display.

  5. Expand the tree view to display all of the options. After making changes, click Save. Click Cancel to discard any changes and return to the previous window.

    Click on the underlined option to display a description.

    Table 3.1. System Settings

    OptionDescription

    Show Allow Automatic Login Option

    Indicates whether to display the checkbox for automatic login on the login page. It is convenient for users to have the option to click a link that automatically logs them in. However, if users check this box then an MD5 hash of their password is stored in their cookies. It is very difficult to recover a password from this hash. The primary risk in providing this convenience is if an unauthorized user is able to gain access to a computer, which has logged into Xpede.NET with this checkbox checked. This will allow the unauthorized user to log into the system as the last user who successfully logged in. If the automatic login is allowed, users who may enter time on public terminals should be instructed not to check the "Allow Automatic Login" checkbox. The checkbox is marked by default.

    Use Extensive Caching

    When the Use Extensive Caching option is marked, then the results of many often-executed database queries are stored in ASP. Net's cache, decreasing the required traffic between the web server and database server. Data remains in the cache for five minutes; five minutes after an item is added to the cache it is cleared, and the next request for that data item will be retrieved from the database, then saved for another five minutes. Cache activity may be monitored by setting TraceDataCache to "1" in the system diagnostics section of web.config. When the Use Extensive Caching option is unmarked, cache use will be cut dramatically, but not entirely.

    Cache Time Period (seconds)

    Determines the length of time data is stored in cache. The default setting is 300 seconds (5 minutes). If this setting is reduced, this increases server/network traffic and therefore can reduce Xpede.NET's performance. If this setting is increased, the server/network traffic is reduced, but will reduce the "real-time" updates. For example, if the setting is set to 600 seconds (10 minutes), the list of projects will remain static in Xpede.NET (per user), so in the meantime, if a new project is created in Project Accounting, a user that already accessed the project list in Xpede.NET within the last 10 minutes will not see the new project until the next time the project list is cached.

    SQL Timeout Period (seconds)

    Determines the length of time a specific query will be allowed to run before returning data from the server. The default setting is 300 seconds (5 minutes). For example, if you select to run a report for a range of projects that has a large amount of transactions, it takes time for the SQL server to return the data. If the timeout period elapses, the report will timeout and not return the data.

    Return to Menu on Save

    When the Return to Menu on Save is marked, users are sent directly to the main menu when they click the Save button on Timesheet or Expense Claim Entry and the save succeeds. If this option is not marked, then users remain in the entry window after successful saves until explicitly indicating that they are ready to return to the main menu.

    Hide Hours Billable

    If the Hide Hours Billable option is marked, then the Hours Billable field in timesheet entry will not display. This is only regarding the Timesheet Entry Window; through the Approval Window, project managers can always see and edit this value. If the field is hidden, the value of Hours Billable is always updated to be the value entered for Hours Worked.

    Require Task Selection For Timesheets

    If the Require Task Selection For Timesheets option is marked, the No Task selection option is removed from the Task Chooser window requiring the user to select a task when entering timesheets. If the option is unmarked, the No Task selection option is available for the user to select.

    Allow Duplicate Project Phase Task Lines On a Timesheet

    If Allow Duplicate Project, Phase, and Task Lines on a Timesheet is marked, a user will be able to enter multiple lines with the same Project, Phase, and Task combination on a timesheet. If it is unmarked, they will have to have unique Project, Phase, and Task combinations on their timesheet.

    Prevent Multiple Timesheets Per Resource Per Batch

    If the Prevent Multiple Timesheets Per Resource Per Batch option is unmarked, then all relevant batches appear in the batch chooser window. All current restrictions, such as team, still apply. If the Prevent Multiple Timesheets Per Resource Per Batch option is marked, then all relevant batches appear in the batch chooser EXCEPT the batches where the resource the timesheet is being entered for already has a timesheet saved or posted. All of the other current restrictions still apply.

    Prevent Edits to Submitted Timesheets

    If Prevent Edits to Submitted Timesheets is marked, timesheets cannot be edited once submitted and saved. Timesheets can only be edited if rejected or unsubmitted in Project Accounting. If the option is unmarked, timesheets can still be edited after submission.

    Prevent Edits to Submitted Expense Claims

    If Prevent Edits to Submitted Expense Claims is marked, expense claims cannot be edited once submitted and saved. Expense Claims can only be edited if rejected or unsubmitted in Project Accounting. If the option is unmarked, expense claims can still be edited after submission.

    Require Project Selection for Expense Claims

    If the Require Project Selection For Expense Claims option is marked, the No Project selection option is removed from the Project Chooser window requiring the user to select a project/phase/task. If the option is unmarked, the No Project selection option is available for the user to select.

    Require Task Selection for Expense Claims

    If the Require Task Selection For Expense Claims option is marked, the No Task selection option is removed from the Task Chooser window requiring the user to select a task when entering expenses. If the option is unmarked, the No Task selection option is available for the user to select.

    Task Chooser No Task Label

    This setting allows you to customize the label on the Task Chooser's No Task button. If the default value of 'No Task' is changed, then the No Task button's label is changed to the value.

    Entry Week Start Day

    Indicates which day of the week the view in timesheet entry begins. The default value is Sunday, but for organizations whose timesheet batches run Mon-Sun, users will find timesheet entry much more expedient if this Timesheet Entry Week Start Day is set to Monday.

    Timesheet Template Start Day

    Indicates which day of the week the view in timesheet template entry begins. The default value is Sunday, but for organizations whose timesheet batches run Mon-Sun, users will find timesheet entry much more expedient if this Timesheet Template Start Day is set to Monday.

    Items to Display in Project, Phase and Task Choosers

    If the All checkbox is marked, the entire list of projects, phases, and tasks will appear on one page in the corresponding choosers when accessed via Timesheet Entry or Expense Claim Entry. If the All checkbox is not marked, the number entered in the text field will be the amount of selection items shown per page in the choosers.

    Project, Phase and Task Chooser Sort Method

    If the selection option is Number, the project, phase, and task choosers within Timesheet Entry and Expense Claim Entry will be sorted by Number. If the selection option is Name, the choosers will be sorted by Name.

    Schedule Number

    The control number is used as an incremental unique identifier for project schedules.

    Enter and View Schedules For Managed Projects Only

    If the option is marked, resources with access to Project Schedule Entry and Project Schedule Inquiry as well as the related reports can only create and view schedules for projects that are the project manager to. If this option is unmarked, resources with access to Project Schedule Entry and Project Schedule Inquiry as well as the related reports can create and view schedules for all projects regardless of who is the project manager.

    Restrict Schedule Dates

    If the option is marked, schedule dates must equal to or between the Start and Due Dates of the schedule's project. If unmarked, any dates can be entered for the schedule.

    Hide Timesheet Detail

    If Hide Timesheet Detail is marked, timesheet options and details will not display in the approval and inquiry screens. If unmarked, timesheet options and details will display.

    Hide Expense Claim Detail

    If Hide Expense Claim Detail is marked, expense claim options and details will not display in the approval and inquiry screens. If unmarked, expense claim options and details will display.

    Project Manager Approval Skip Selection Threshold

    When a project manager enters the line approval window all the lines are displayed. However, if there are a lot of lines to display then the page may take a long time to load, and possibly time out without displaying any lines. In order to prevent this timeout there is a threshold such that if the number of lines to display is greater than the threshold then the project manager is prompted to choose selection criteria in order to restrict the number of lines shown. The best threshold value is environment dependent, but should probably be between 50 and 1000.

    Team Approval Skip Selection Threshold

    When a team leader enters the approval window all the documents are displayed. However, if there are a lot of lines to display then the page may take a long time to load, and possibly time out without displaying any lines. In order to prevent this timeout there is a threshold such that if the number of documents to display is greater than the threshold then the team leader is prompted to choose selection criteria in order to restrict the number of documents shown. The best threshold value is environment dependent, but should probably be between 50 and 1000.

    Resource Restriction Display Method

    If the selected option is Number, the Resource restriction in the Resource Inquiry, Team Leader Inquiry, Project Manager Inquiry, Approval Search Criteria (Team Approval), and the Approval Line Search Criteria (Project Manager Approval) windows will display a list of resource numbers. If the selected option is Name, the Resource restriction will display a list of resource names.

    Project Restriction Display Method

    If the selected option is Number, the Project restriction in the Team Leader Inquiry, Project Manager Inquiry, and the Approval Line Search Criteria (Project Manager Approval) windows will display a list of project numbers. If the selected option is Name, the Project restriction will display a list of project names.

    Show Signature Line on Timesheet and Expense Claim Reports

    If Show Signature Line On Timesheet and Expense Claim Reports option is marked, an employee signature line will appear on both the timesheet and expense claim reports. If it is unmarked, no signature line will appear on the reports.

    Restrict Project Reports to Managed Projects Only

    If Restrict Project Reports to Managed Projects Only option is marked, you can only access reporting information for projects for which you're a project manager. If it is unmarked, you can accessing reporting information for all reports.

    Reports Style

    Xpede.NET offers two styles of reporting. Choose 'Style Sheets' for built-in reporting, or choose 'SSRS' to print reports using SQL Server Reporting Services.

    Reports Location

    Xpede.NET will load its reports from the URI specified in the value. The URI can be an absolute physical path accessed through the file system or a URL of an Internet location. For Stylesheets: Xpede.NET appends the name of a specific report when it accesses this property, so be sure to include a final '\' or '/', depending on the URI type. By default this is the physical path of the reports folder of the Xpede.NET web application, for example, c:\inetpub\wwwroot\xpede\stylesheets\ or http://localhost/stylesheets/Xpede.NET/. For SSRS: Only include the server location of the reports. Do not include in the URI the actual folder or subfolders that the reports reside in on the reports server, for example, http://localhost/reportserver

    Reports Folder

    SSRS Only: Enter the folder location where the SSRS reports reside on the reports server. Include subfolders if applicable. Examples: ProjectAcct/Xpede.NET or Xpede.NET

    User Name

    SSRS Only: Enter the User Name for the network credential that will be used to access SSRS reports on the report server.

    Password

    SSRS Only: Enter the Password for the network credential that will be used to access SSRS reports on the report server.

    Domain

    SSRS Only: Enter the Domain for the network credential that will be used to access SSRS reports on the report server.

Before you can use Xpede.NET, you need to set up the users that will be using Xpede.NET and the privilges for each user. Resources are first created in the Resource Maintenance window in Maril Technologies Inc Project Accounting and then added to Xpede.NET by the Xpede.NET administrator. Most likely this information will only need to be set up once, but you may need to refer back to this section if you need to make changes or add new Xpede.NET users.

  1. Launch Internet Explorer or Netscape and enter the Internet address in the web address field. The web address will look similar to this:

    http://web server/virtual folder or http://IP Address/virtual folder

    The Xpede.NET Login window will open.

  2. The first time you enter the Xpede.NET Login window, enter "ADMIN" as the User ID and "access" as the Password. Logging in as ADMIN allows you to add and modify Xpede.NET users, set up and modify user access, and change the system settings.

  3. Select the company you want to use. If you want the system to "remember" your login password, mark the Allow Automatic Login option. Choose Log In to open the Administration window.

    We suggest you change the password of the admin user, which can be accomplished by clicking on the Change Administrator Password link. The password must be at least 6 characters long.

    The most recently used User Name and Company will default into the Xpede.NET Login window.
  4. Click the Add button and select the resources that you want to add to Xpede.NET. Select to leave the default password of 'access' or choose the option to have the user's password be the same as their User ID. You can unmark the Change Password checkbox so new users will not be required to change their password upon their first successful login to Xpede.NET.

  16. More than one user may be selected at a time. If more than one User is selected, the Unchanged column will appear if there are differences between the privileges already assigned to the selected users. If the selected users' privileges are identical, then the Unchanged column will not appear. Once privileges are set or changed, click on Save to save the privilege selections or Cancel to cancel the changes. The administrator will be returned to the Main User Access window.

Use the Preferences window to change your password, enter or edit an e-mail address, select a date format, select your e-mail notification options, or select an alternate approver.

To enter user information: 

  1. On the Main Menu, select Preferences.

  2. Enter or edit your e-mail address.

    The e-mail address you enter will be saved to WorkforceROI Project Accounting. This e-mail address is the address for the sender using the e-mail functionality throughout Xpede.NET.

  3. Change your password by entering a new password and confirming it by entering your new password again in the Confirm New Password field. Your password must be at least 6 characters long.

  4. Select a date format. Changing the Date Format will affect how dates are entered and displayed in Xpede.NET.

  5. Choose if you want to receive timesheet and expense claim notifications via e-mail.

    If you are a project manager or a team leader and want to receive e-mail notifications relating to time and expenses for your projects or resources, mark the checkboxes for Timesheet Submission and/or Expense Claim Submission. In order to receive submission notifications, you must have an e-mail address entered. The sender must also have an e-mail address.

    Mark the checkboxes for Timesheet Rejection and/or Expense Claim Rejection if you wish to receive e-mail notifications if one of your timesheets or expense claims has been rejected by either a project manager or team leader. Mark the Timesheet Approved and/or Expense Claim Approved checkbox to receive an e-mail notification when your timesheet or expense claim has been approved by either a project manager or a team leader. An e-mail address is required to receive submission, rejection, and approved e-mail notifications.

    E-mail notifications can only be received for submitted timesheets or expense claims if the e-mail recipient is a team leader or project manager. If you are set up to approve for all, you still must be set up as a project manager or a team leader to receive e-mail notifications. A resource who is both a project manager and a team leader will receive only one submission e-mail notification per transaction. For example, resource A is project manger of project 1 and also team leader for resource B and resource C. When resource B submits their timesheet for work performed on project 1, one e-mail notification will be sent to resource A. If a resource resubmits their timesheets or expense claims, the notification sent will reflect that the time or expense was resubmitted.

    The Timesheet Submission and Expense Claim Submission checkboxes will only be displayed if one of the following conditions is true for the user logged into Xpede.NET:

    Team Approvals or Project Approvals can be disabled in Xpede.NET by modifying the System Settings window, which can be accessed by the Xpede.NET Administrator.

  6. If you are an approver, you will have an Alternate Approver option. Refer to the Alternates chapter for additional information.

  7. Save your entries.

    If e-mail notifications are not sending, contact your Xpede.NET Administrator to modify the AutomaticEmailEventLogging setting in the web.config file.
    By default, e-mails that are older than 10 days will be removed from the e-mail log file. This setting is the same for all companies and can be modified by the Xpede.NET Administrator by editing the DaysToKeepLog field in the xsmMailQueue table in the XPEDE database.

Xpede.NET restricts choosers to display information specific to a project, phase and task in the Xpede.NET Timesheet Entry and Expense Claim Entry windows. The information populated in the Project Roster Maintenance window of WorkforceROI Project Accounting will restrict the project lookups for resources in Xpede.NET. For example, if user A is assigned to Projects A and C, the project lookup window for resource A will display only these two projects. If you have job titles assigned to the project rosters, the project choosers will display that project for only the resources that are assigned to those job titles.

The following table displays what information will be displayed in the choosers for each project type.

If project rosters do not exist, the resource will be able to view and select from all open projects.
Fixed Price projects without posted estimates will not be available in the project choosers.
In Project Accounting, you can manually enter a project roster to restrict the project chooser for time and materials projects with no estimate.

A phase is required when you enter an estimate in WorkforceROI Project Accounting. A task is not required, but adds another level of detail if desired. When an estimate is used, the phase and task choosers in Xpede.NET will display only the phases and tasks entered on the estimate. All phases and tasks will be displayed if an estimate is not entered and posted for a time and materials project.

Estimated tasks and time and materials task types for fixed price + projects are displayed in the task lookups since time and materials tasks cannot be entered on an estimate.

If a pay code has been assigned to a task, but you are not assigned to a pay code, that task will not be displayed in the task lookup.

Shortcuts are project, phase, task, and/or item combinations each resource can set up to allow for streamlined data entry when entering timesheets and expense claims. Shortcuts are useful when you need to enter timesheets or expense claims for the same project, phase, task, and/or item combination on a regular basis. You can simply select the shortcut you have created instead of entering the project, phase, task, and/or item each time you are entering a transaction.

To create shortcuts: 

  1. Open the Shortcut Manager window by selecting Shortcuts from the Main Menu.

    There are no required fields in the Shortcuts window. You can create shortcuts for any combination of projects, phases, tasks, and/or items. However, they must be selected in the project, phase, task, and item order.
    Shortcuts apply for the user logged into Xpede.NET.
    If a task is not chosen when creating a shortcut, the user should not expect that the same shortcut chosen in Timesheet Entry or Expense Claim Entry will automatically choose the No Task option (when available) for the transaction line. If the user defines a shortcut without a task, the No Task option in the Shortcuts window only means that a task was not defined for that shortcut line.
    If a project is closed in Project Accounting, all shortcuts relating to that project will be removed from Xpede.NET
  2. Select the Click Here for a New Shortcut link to add a new shortcut.

  3. Enter the project, phase, task, and/or item combination you want to select when entering transactions.

  4. Choose the type of transaction(s) which you want the shortcut to be available. Choose Both if you want the shortcut available for timesheets and expense claims. Choose Timesheet if you want the shortcut available only in Timesheet Entry. Choose Expense Claim if you want the shortcut available only in Expense Claim Entry.

    Shorcut lines cannot have an item and also have the transaction type of Timesheet. The user will be prompted to change the transaction type if this combination is present.
  5. To save the shortcuts, click Done. To delete a shortcut, click on the Delete icon next to the corresponding shortcut.

Shortcuts will display according to the chooser that is currently active. Refer to the following table for details. In addition, if a project has a posted estimate, only shortcuts that match estimated phases and tasks will be available to select.

Timesheet templates are set up to speed timesheet data entry for projects, phases, and tasks that are typically repeated from timesheet to timesheet.

To create a timesheet template: 

By using timesheets, time spent by each resource on each project can be closely monitored. A resource selects project, phase, and task combinations and enters the hours for each day spent on the project. In Xpede.NET you must submit your timesheets in order to approve them, regardless if approval levels are used.

To delete an entire timesheet, select the timesheet from the Main Menu and then click the Delete button. To delete a timesheet line, select the timesheet from the Main Menu. Then click the Delete icon next to the desired line to delete.
You must have batches, resources, projects and phases set up in WorkforceROI Project Accounting before you can enter timesheets in Xpede.NET. If tasks are used when entering timesheets, they must also be set up in WorkforceROI Project Accounting.
Submitted timesheets may be unavailable to edit if the 'Prevent Edits to Submitted Timesheets' option is marked in the Xpede.NET System Settings.
For detailed information about entering timesheets, refer to the WorkforceROI Project Accounting manual.

To enter a timesheet: 

  1. On the Main Menu, select Create a New Timesheet.

  2. If you have access to enter for other resources, the resource chooser will appear to allow you to select the resource you are entering the timesheet for. The resource chooser will not appear if you do not have access to "Enter for others" or "Enter for teams".

  3. The batch chooser will appear if there is more than one timesheet batch available. If the batch chooser does not appear, only one timesheet batch is available to select and Xpede.NET will automatically choose the batch. An option in the System Settings window is available to prevent users from entering more than one timesheet in a batch. Contact your supervisor to set up a timesheet batch in Project Accounting if the batch chooser appears without any batches.

    If a timesheet template exists for the logged in user, it will be copied to the timesheet after the batch has been chosen. This process will only occur if the user logged in is entering a timesheet for their self. If the timesheet batch is longer than seven days, each template line will be repeated until all days of the batch have been filled.
  4. Select the project, phase, and task in which time is to be recorded against.

    If you have shortcuts set up, you can select the shortcut from the Shortcuts list.
  5. Enter the number of hours spent working on the selected project, phase, and task. If you are integrated with Payroll, this is the number of hours for which the employee will be paid.

    Negative hours worked and hours billed quantities can be entered if a previously posted timesheet needs to be reversed.

    The Cost Rate, Charge Rate, and Pay Code fields are viewed if the user that is logged into Xpede.NET has the corresponding checkboxes marked in Resource Detail Maintenance in Project Accounting.
    The Hours Billable field will not be displayed if the option is marked in the System Settings window.
  6. Finish the timesheet line by clicking on the Done button in the lower frame of the window. Begin at step 4 again to enter time towards other project, phase, and task combinations. Choose the Cancel button to clear the line and to start over. Choose the Delete button to delete the timesheet line.

  7. Save the entire timesheet by clicking on the Save button in the upper frame of the window. You can cancel any changes since the last save by clicking on Cancel. You can also delete the entire timesheet by clicking on the Delete button in the upper frame.

To print or e-mail your own timesheet via Xpede.NET reporting:

Use the Expense Claim Entry window to enter claims for expenses that resources may incur. Expense claims are used when you want the cost of an item to be applied to the project and reimburse a resource or a credit card vendor for the item cost.

To delete an entire expense claim, select the expense claim from the Main Menu and then click the Delete button in the Expense Claim Entry window. To delete an expense claim line, select the expense claim from the Main Menu and then click the Delete icon. You cannot delete an expense claim that has approved lines.
For reimbursable expenses, you must set up the resources as a Payables Management vendor and attach the vendor to the resource in the Resource Maintenance window. For non-reimbursable expenses, you must set up credit cards in Great Plains by going to Setup>Company>Credit Cards.
Submitted expense claims may be unavailable to edit if the 'Prevent Edits to Submitted Expense Claims' option is marked in the Xpede.NET System Settings.

When expense claims are posted in WorkforceROI Project Accounting, the cost will be applied to the project and a payables transaction will be created for the vendor ID entered on the expense claim. This allows for a resource reimbursement for the cost that the resource paid out of his or her own pocket.

To enter expense claims: 

The Merchant and Reference fields are for informational purposes only.
The Account and Vendor are only visible if you can "Enter for Teams" or "Enter for Others".
  1. On the Main Menu, select Create a New Expense Claim.

  2. The resource chooser will appear to select the resource you are entering an expense claim for if you have access to enter for others. The resource chooser will not appear if you do not have access to "Enter for others" or "Enter for teams".

  3. The batch chooser will appear if more than one batch is available. If the batch chooser does not appear, only one expense claim batch is available. If the batch chooser appears without any batches, contact your supervisor to set up an expense claim batch in Project Accounting.

  4. Select the expense claim date. Accept the default of today's date by hitting enter or clicking the Select button.

  5. Select the expense claim line date. Accept the default of today's date by hitting enter or clicking the Select button.

  6. Select the expense item for which you are entering an expense. Expense items are entered in Project Accounting.

  7. Select the project, phase and task (if applicable) this expense is to be recorded against. If a task is attached to a phase in WorkforceROI Project Accounting, you are still able to select the task when entering an expense claim.

    If the expense is not project related, select No Project from the project chooser. The phase and task choosers are skipped if a project is not selected.

    If you have shortcuts set up, you can select the shortcut from the Shortcuts list.

  8. Enter the quantity. A negative quantity can be entered if a previously posted expense claim needs to be reversed.

  9. Either enter the amount or accept the default amount. The default amount is obtained from the Default Cost field for the expense item in the Expense Claim Item Maintenance window in Project Accounting. The amount of decimal places allowed for the item is also specified in the Expense Claim Item Maintenance window. For example, to be able to enter $0.375 as the amount for mileage, the item must be set up to allow at least 3 decimal places.

  10. Specify if the expense claim line is reimbursable or non-reimbursable. Reimbursable expenses are paid to the resource and non-reimbursable expenses are paid to the credit card. The Disbursement type defaults from the Resource Maintenance window in Project Accounting.

  11. Specify if the expense claim line is billable, non-billable or no charge. The Billing type defaults from the Expense Claim Item Maintenance window in Project Accounting.

  12. Finish the expense claim line by clicking the Done button or choose the Cancel button to clear the line entry.

Assigning an Alternate Approver:  Users that have access to approve by either Team Approvals or Project Manager Approvals have the ability to delegate their approval procedure to someone else while they are away from the office. The resource that is assigned as the Alternate Approver will inherit the Permanent Approver's approval access in addition to their current approval access. The Alternate Approver will have the ability to approve, inquire, and report on all the resources and/or projects in which the Permanent Approver does.

As long as an Alternate Approver is assigned, you will be unable to approve transactions in Xpede.NET. The Alternate Approver must be removed by selecting None in the User Preferences window. When a resource is removed from being an Alternate Approver, an e-mail will be sent to them to confirm the removal.

Approving Transactions as an Alternate Approver: When you are assigned as an Alternate Approver, you will receive an e-mail containing the Resources, Teams, and Projects in which you will be temporarily approving. If you normally do not have access to approve, you will now have either the Team Approval link, the Project Manager Approval link or both links available in the Your Projects section on the Main Menu. Refer to the corresponding Team Approvals or Project Manager Approvals chapter for information on those windows.

Along with inheriting approval access, you will also inherit access to inquiry windows and reports. These include Team Leader Inquiry, Project Manager Inquiry, Resource Inquiry, Timesheet Report, Expense Claim Report, and Timesheet Status Report. You will also have additional E-mail Notification options in the User Preferences window. You can mark these options to receive e-mail notifications for when timesheets or expense claims are submitted.
