Time Management Self Service (TMSS): Overview#
The Time Management with Self Service (TMSS) module allows employees and managers/administrators to manage time using either generated and manually-keyed clock entries or just hours.
With TMSS, users can:
- generate time into a Time Sheet for employees who are scheduled through the Time Scheduling (TS) or Event Scheduling (ES) modules. The schedule will be managed through the TS module and employees will enter their exceptions to generated shifts through the TMSS application.
- generate time into a Time Sheet for employees who work a specific shift and schedule (i.e. who have standard start/end times) but who are NOT scheduled through the TS or ES modules.
- generate time into a Time Card for employees who are NOT shift based (i.e. who do not have a start/end time) but are hours based.
- generate blank Time Cards for employees who do not work a standard set of hours. Employees will enter the actual hours worked and any applicable exceptions.
Once the employees have entered their exceptions, they will, where possible, be able to view the time entry details with all applicable time rules applied and then submit their times to their manager (i.e. whoever is defined as the next approval level) for approval.
For employees who do not enter their own time, an administrator version of the Time Sheet and Time Card screens are available. These screens will be used by designated "Time Keepers".
Once approved, the time entries in the time sheet are summarized and processed into payroll.
