Accounting
Latest on the new time accounting system:
It works for "most people."
Individuals cannot print their own weekly time sheets, but supervisors can print their subordinates' records. Also, supervisors have total ability to enter or modify all their subordinates' records. (Better be nice to the boss!)
There is no subtotal for day. So if you get to the end of Thursday and show you've worked 31.25 hours so far that week, you get to do the math in your head to figure out that it was Tuesday you short-reported .75 hour.
Task description x-ref is forthcoming.
Review PTO balance is forthcoming.
Filter by project is not working yet (just page on down, there's only 869 lines of lookup!). Subtask list for Proposals is not yet built.
If you're in a foreign country or rural area where you have no VPN access remotely, you can just phone in your hours and have your supervisor enter them. (No word on how you approve timesheets if you're a supervisor who happens to be off-site on a Monday - especially since supposedly you cannot see more than one level below your own, so grand-boss can't help.)
Oy again. {{eye roll}}

The *only* good thing it does is daily updates of shop/lab project hours spent, which gives prompter time accounting on government contracts.

I have Access and a tutorial book. Pay me lots of money and I'll make s a system for you that's marginally less broken...

This is a case of a project manager who doesn't have the balls to admit that their vendor screwed up. Big.
