My Employee Missing Timesheets

My Projects Missing Timesheets

This list page displays all the missing timesheets but displays the records of employee timesheets for the project for which the logged in user is the Project manager. So, the logged in user should be set up as the Project manager in the project in which the employee has been added as a worker, in the Project validation worker assignment form. There is a dependency of this feature on the Project worker validation setup. Unless this setup exists on the projects, there would be no data in this list page. The rest of the functionality and capability of this list page is the same as that of All missing timesheets.

This list page is available in the below path.

Project management and accounting > projects360 >Timesheets > My projects missing timesheets.
Go to Timesheets > Missing timesheets > My project missing timesheets.

Note – There is a dependency of this feature on the Project manager setup. Unless this setup exists on the projects, there would be no data in this list page.
