> Time / Approval / STAGE 5: Supervisor Approval / Supervisor Chain / Creating a Supervisor

Creating a Supervisor

You need to set up all the supervisors you need in the system.

You make an employee a supervisor by assigning them to the Supervisor employee analysis group. (This group is set up by default in Coretime.)

  1. Select Utilities – Analysis – Employee Analysis.
  2. The Employee Analysis screen opens.

  3. Select Supervisor in the Groups drop-down list.
  4. Click the New Employee Analysis button.
  5. In the Employee drop-down list, select the employee you want to make a supervisor.
  6. Click Submit.

That employee is now added to the system's list of supervisors.

User Profile Settings for a Supervisor

You need to apply certain user profile settings to a supervisor.

  1. Select Edit – Employees.
  2. The Employees screen opens. Click the User Profile tab.
  3. Select the Head of Department checkbox.
  4. Deselect the View All Employees' Times checkbox.

    This ensures that the supervisor will have access only to the timesheet entries of themselves, the employees they supervise and - when the supervisor chain is set up - employees supervised by these employees.

    When the checkbox is selected, the supervisor can see all employees' timesheet entries.

  5. Click Submit.
