Time Entries for Absence/Vacation - can't switch off approvals

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 24

Hi

I asked this in the Project Operations forum a couple of weeks ago but there have been no answers so I'm hoping someone might be able to help here...

When resources create Time Entries for vacation the system tries to send an approval request to their manager - it looks like you used to be able to switch this off but it's now defaulted to be on.

My customer already goes through an approval process in their separate HR system, so we need to be able to switch this functionality off.  And then we plan to use an integration to copy the data across.

How can we switch this off for all resources?  Or stop the process from triggering the approval request?

Thanks

    We tried doing it through Power Automate, but if the owner of the flow isn't the approver it still fails and says you don't have permissions :)

    Would just Auto-Approving the Time Entry through Power Automate be suitable?
