What does the email “Action required – Immediate Action of time entries must be completed” mean?

Managers and their “Time Card Editor and Approver” delegates will receive an email notification of ‘Action required – Immediate Action of time entries must be completed’ that includes an ‘Unapproved_Time_Details’ report every Tuesday morning, which lists for the current pay period and prior pay periods up to 60 days in the past:

1. Timecards submitted by employees that require your review and subsequent approval or rejection
2. Timecards created by employees that have not yet been submitted for approval

With the Human Resource Management System (HRMS), managers or their delegates must approve time cards by 5:00 p.m. Tuesday of the week prior to the Pay Date in which those hours are to be paid.

Note: If an employee’s Assignment is ending before the Tuesday 5:00 p.m. deadline, then the deadline for approval of those hours is the final day of that contract/assignment.

Managers and their time approval delegates who have no employees with “Saved” or “Submitted” timecards as of 6 a.m. on Tuesday will not receive this automated email notification.
