Is it mandatory for an agency to use the Time Approval System in Beacon? Can they use a manual approval process for approving leave?
When an Agency allows Time Administrators to enter the time, it is assumed that the time has been keyed from a Time Sheet that has already been approved by a supervisor or manager. When an employee makes their own entries in ESS, it is mandatory that a manager or supervisor approved those records before they can be processed for payroll. Without that approval, records will not be processed The Leave request process is entirely optional. The Leave request doesn’t reduce the balance, only the actual entry for the absence reduces the quota. It is more of a planning/information tool for managers and supervisors.
