Manager Approval Process

These are instructions on how to get to the approve time cards and payroll matters for your employee/students. Please note that this is a work in progress as the actual procedure is being worked out as of Jan. 10, 2012. Your milage may thus vary.

To start go to the link http://panthersoft.fiu.edu/hr/index.htm, This is where the actual documentation is kept. For the impatient a summary of the process for timesheets and emplyee vaction time approval is listed below.

• Login into your "My FIU" website*: Once your in the Human Resources Screen click on "Main Menu", follow these steps:

1. 1. Click on -Manager Self Service -> Time Management -> Approve Time and Exception -> Payable Time: Once you are in the Approve Time for Time Reports page
   2. Go to the bottom of the page to "Start Date" and "End Date" and verify that the corresponding pay period (current - 12/24/11 - 1/06/2011) is correct
   3. Click on "Get Employees"
   4. Select Employee (click on employee's name) to view their timesheet; or "View All" to view all the employees timesheet (faster, but not suggested)
   5. lick on "Select All" to select all hours recorded in the timesheet for that particular period. All daily inputs should be "checked".
   6. Click on "Approve"
   7. Confirm Approval; click "YES"
   8. Save; click "OK"
   9. Click on "Next Employee" (if applicable) and repeat steps 1 - 7

Note: The employee needs to enter and submit their hours before the manager approves the timesheet. The employee will not show up on a manager's roster until they have submitted their timesheets. Also it will take about 3 to 5 hours for timesheet entries to register in the manager's table so do let your students wait until Monday to submit their times.
