Supervisor LaborView

The Supervisor LaborView page lists all supervisors, assigned to the current Controller, who meet the criteria of the selected LaborView. To select a LaborView, use the drop down menu in the Choose a LaborView section.

Only the approving controller has the ability to approve a supervisor's Time Card Report. Once a report is approved, secondary editors are no longer able to edit the report. Only the approving controller may make changes to an approved report.

Select the pay period from the Choose a Pay Group Instance field in the left pane.

The LaborView chosen as the default (in My Preferences > Supervisor LaborView) is automatically displayed.

• To select a different LaborView, use the drop down menu in the Choose a LaborView section. All options selected in the preferences screen are displayed.

• To quickly search for a supervisor record in the LaborView, use the employee filter criteria above the LaborView records.

• Depending on the LaborView selected, the screen displays the supervisor names and includes the other information specified in the LaborView. From this screen, the employee time cards can be approved or signed off.

• The records can be sorted by column information. The data is alternately sorted in ascending or descending order by clicking on the heading of that column. The ascending and descending arrows indicate the direction of the sort.

• The controller can lock the records of a supervisor by checking the box to the left of the supervisor's name and clicking on the Lock Supervisor button in the left pane. A check mark is displayed in the Is Locked column.

• The lock can be removed by checking the box and clicking on the Unlock Supervisor button.
