can we set up timesheet submission reminder notifications to the users like every Thursday EOD?

@PiyushS - It is from my understanding that the there is not an option to send emails, automatically from the system, to remind users to submit their timesheet. The Mailer/Scanner job only sends notifications once a timesheet has become overdue. 

Other options may include:

  • Banner notification in the system: Unfortunately you would have to manually set this up for every week of the month since there is not currently an option to make them recurring. 
  • Utilize the Announcement widget
  • If you have a mailbox that you manage all of your Planview support through then you could look at automatically sending an email from it to your user population. 

I know these are not the ideal option but may help bridge the gap; unless other customers are aware of capabilities I have not been aware of during my time as an Admin.

We have setup some automated reports to our managers.  We send a missing timesheet report on Thursdays and Fridays.  This report uses a Targeted Subscription and the distribution is based on the person’s role in Planview.

One of our requirements is the Friday of a time recording close is we have to have all timesheets submitted.  Noon is the deadline and we use the report to track down any delinquents.  It is a bit of a process but it works for us.
