Employee Time Off Workflow

I would like to create a FormsCentral employee time off form.  Our currently form is a PDF that has 3 submission buttons - each submission button is used by a different person in the work flow chain.
1st submission is done by the employee requesting time off, when pressed it attaches itself to an e-mail and is then the employee enters the supervisors email.
2nd submission is for the supervisor to approve the time off and once the submit button is pressed it again attaches itself to an e-amil and is sent to human resources.
3rd submission is to human resources which then records it and is then sent back to the employee for the employee to keep as a record of approval.
Basically -
Employee > Supervisor > Human Resources > Employee
How can I replicate this or would there be a better way to handle this with Forms Central?
Thanks

Hi;
FormsCentral does not have any sort of a "workflow" for forms.  We just released a feature that could be used for something like you've described but is not what the feature is designed for.
The new feature is "Save Web Form" which is turned on and configured by the author of the form and allows the form filler to "Save" their progress and Email a URL to the partially completed form to themselves (or to someone else).  You could accomplish a "workflow" using this feature.  The Human Resources person in the chain would probably "Submit' the form and with "Email Reciepts" turned on the Employee could recieve an email confirmation that the process was completed.
The "Save Web Form" feature is enabled on the Options tab, under "Save Web Form".
Thanks,
Josh

  • Issue with PTO (Paid Time Off) quota generation

    Hi All,
    We have an issue with quota generation of PTO for our employees.
    The issue goes like this:
    We have a Paid time off for employees 5weeks( 200 hrs) for employees who have worked less than 5 years.
    we have  paid time off for employees 6 weeks ( 240 hrs) for employees who have worked more than 5 years.
    we have the following logic that has to go in this config:
    -- Our fiscal year starts on Feb 1st and ends on Jan end or Feb starts which has a full week of working days. ( ex: if 01/31/2012 falls on a Thursday the following Monday which has full 5 day working week would be the end of the fiscal year).
    -- Depending on the working hours of  the employees and the date of joining for the first year ( for new hires)0041 info type the eligibility gets varied and reduced. Ex( employees who joins on start of fiscal year and works 40hrs per week schedules is eligible for 200hrs of PTO. Employees who join in the month of august and works for 35 hrs per week ( i.e mid of fiscal year) would get 91 hrs of PTO.
    I need to put this in the system. I am thinking this could be done with out tweaking PCR.I need help in configuring this in Absence quotas as to what are the things i need change in system config and how do i do it. Please help with some screen shots if possible.  I really need this to get it done ASAP. Looking forward for help.
    Thanks,

    We use TM00 schema. Can i call TS15 and TS 12  rules into TM00 acheieve my issue of quota entilements?
    Iam doing this because my businees needs to see if an employee chages his work schedule from 40 to 30 or 20 etc.. the PTO has to vary accordingly.
    As the minimum eligibility is to work for 20 hrs to avail the PTO days. If at any point the employee drops it under 20 he will not be eligible till he work any this >= 20hrs per month so the evaluation has to check periodically to update the quota availability.... I need help plz suggest ...

  • Overtime compensation by time off.

    Dear Experts,
    I am using TM00 for time evaluation, I want to compensate the overtime perfomed by employee by time off only (no payment for overtime), I am using PCR YO16 for determining overtime (Copy of TO16 Determine overtime without approval), I have set the compensation type 3 (Compensation time off) using PCR YO16, I have created one absence quotya type 02 called as "comp off" with "INCREASE" mode in customizing, I have kept base entitlement for this quota type as Day Balance 0410 (Time off from overtime), the issue is that the quota type 02 is geting accrued twice if employee works overtime this is because PCR for compensation of Overtime TC10 updates the quota 02 by UPDTQA by overtime hours and QOUTA function also increases the quota type 02 by overtime hours,.
    Since my quota type 02 should only get generated if any employee works overtime I dont want it to get processed by QUOTA function so could you please let me know how to achieve it.
    If there is any other solution for my requirement then also please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Javed

    Hi Okan,
    For accessing the quota in time evaluation should be in increase mode.
    Still I tries as you said be it is also preventing it from getting updated by UPDTQA.
    I am having one workaround...if I remove the UPDTQA statement from TC12 I am getting correct results since the quota is getting updated by QUOTA function only...but I think this would not be the correct way to get the solution since SAP has provided the UPDTQA statement in TC12 means there should be some purpose behind it...right...the correct way would be to avoid the quota getting updated by QUOTA function...I think we are missing something...bevause of which we are not able prevent QUOTA function from updating our quota..please suggest...
    Thanks,

  • Guided Procedures - Runtime "Create Time-off Request"

    Hi Everyone,
    I’ve created a Time-Off Process using the tutorial downloaded from SDN site.
    When I try to start the Runtime project (Employee side) I find the “Processors Table” in "Create Time-off Request" screen.
    The Approver name is not correct… is not what I expected!
    1) How can I change (in the Design Time project/area) the Approver and HR Consultant parameters?
    2) How can I hide (in the Runtime area) the “Processors Table”? 
    Furthermore, I would like to have more information about the “Parameters Consolidation” meaning. Could you help me to catch this meaning?
    Thanks in advance,
    Enrico

    Hi David,
    thanks for you useful answer! You gave me an answer of 80%!
    Now I try to explain you my problem for the other 20%!
    Now, ... I can't modify the Time-Off exemple, right?! But I would just like to start from this example and modify it!!!
    Can I do it starting from the project code?!
    Can I see the code lines which describe the Time-Off behaviour, so that I can customize it???? ... enfact, if I could do it, I wouldn't have to rewrite the whole code, and I also could understand the logic of TimeOff project structure.
    Do you understand me? Was I clear?

  • Query-Paid Time Off (PTO)

    Hi,
    I am working on Time Management. I have a query. I need to set the PTO (Paid Time Off) right wherein the Details given as under:-
    Scenario:-
    1) Length of Service=0-0.99
    Accrual hours per pay period=4.01
    Yearly Equivalent= 96 Hours
    Maximum Hours of Accrual=96
    2) Length of Service=1-1.99
    Accrual hours per pay period=4.01
    Yearly Equivalent= 96 Hours
    Maximum Hours of Accrual=144
    Here the query is that the Maximum number of Hours to be accrued should be 96+96=192 but the client wants it to be 144 and not 192 but clients wants to add the Scenario 1 and 2 for maximum number of hours but the total should not exceed 144. Same is the case with other scenario’s given wherein I need to add maximum number of hours but there is limit set  for total.
    I went to T559L but unable to understand how to incorporate the above stated.
    Kindly help.

  • Trying to use labview to analyse analog data from a jump on a force plate and measure peak force (at two points, initial land and 2nd land from jump). Also need to mark the time of flight (time off plate).

    Attached is a file of 3 trials of a drop vertical jump activity onto a force plate.  the subject stands on a platform off the force plate, jumps onto the force place and immediately jumps up as if going for a rebound.  I am able to run this data and obtain a waveform graph with no problems.  however, I need to be able to find the initial contact with the force palte, the peak of the drop, the intial time off the force plate (prior to the jump), the return from the jump and finally the second peak (landing from the jump). 
    I want to calculate the time of flight ( time off the plate and in the air after the intial drop) to calculate juimp height.
    I had someone write me a mathscript for it and it works well, however, I need to do it without mathscript as I do not understand mathscript (nor Labview!!).
    Please help

    OK, but I'm not understanding what you're asking us to do... Are you asking us to explain what the MathScript code is doing? (It's searching the array for the elements when the values are above or below a threshold.) Are you asking someone to convert the whole MathScript code to LabVIEW (we are not a code-writing service), or you just want to be able to calculate the new stuff you want with LabVIEW?
    In the future, please do not post proprietary file formats. Most people do not have Word, or Word 2007 for that matter. Please post text files or PDFs. Thanks.

  • Time Based Workflow - how to make it work?

    Hello,
    Has anyone successfully built a Time Based Workflow? Could you share your examples?
    For me it does not work properly.
    I have tried to set up 2 workflows: on Opportunity Close Date and Account Contract Expiration Date.
    - Account Contract Expiration Date: I want an Account Owner to get an email notification exactly 6 months before the contract with his client expires. However - the email is triggered each time the record is modified - so I have seen in the workflow monitor that users on the date of contract expiration - 180 days will receive as many emails as many times they modified the record! Is there a way to avoid this situation?
    - Opportunity Close Date - I want to send an email to Opportunity Owner's Manager - 10 days after the opportunity was closed. However - there will be the same issue as above + the wait action is not working with a PRE function.
    Please let me know what you think and if you have already built a Time Based Workflow that works correctly.
    Edited by: MagdaR on May 18, 2010 1:57 AM

    Let's start with the workflow for Opty Close Date.
    There are a lot of ways to do this, so you'll need to evaluate which way is best for your case, but the basics are to check to ensure that the opty is closed for the first time, then set the flag. In order to accomodate for the opty being closed when it is created, you will have to consider a post default for the flag in addition to the workflow.
    In this case, you could create a workflow on Opty using the before modified record saved trigger event. In the Rule Condition, have the workflow check for a closed opty and if the status changed to closed during this modification. There are a number of options to validate this, including sales stage = Closed/Won or Lost, Closed Date is populated for the first time, Status is closed. In any case, just validate that the opty was closed for the first time using the PRE Function (i.e., PRE(Closed Date) is null and PRE(Closed Date)<>Closed Date). When your condition is met, set a flag that will trigger the event. You could also add a date that the wf conditions were met the first time, to ensure that you track when the rule was originally triggered.
    The next step is to have a workflow that unsets the flag if the conditions are not met. Set the order on this one to follow the rule above.
    The last rule is the wait/email rule and it uses the when modified record saved event. This rule triggers on the flag being checked, then waits to send the email.
    Test this and validate that it will work for your purposes. Based on this workflow, you should be able to create the other one, and I can help if you have any issues.
    Good Luck,
    Thom

  • Turning on the backlight with backlight timer off

    With the backlight timer set on off, there is a feature to turn on the backlight by holding the menu button. I remember doing that a while ago, but my ipod no longer does that anymore. Now with the backlight timer off, and i hold the menu button it no longer does that (it just goes to the main screen). I've tried reseting the ipod, but the feature does not come back.

    The only way I can think of to get the feature back is to "update" using an older updater, such as the one that came with your CD.
    Reinstall the updater from the CD that came with your iPod would give you an older update that would contain the feature your looking for. Also using the "previous updaters" feature in the iPod folder on your computer would have the same effect. Update the iPod with one of these. However, bear in mind that newer features such as the volume limiter that are on the new 1.1.1 update would not be available.

  • Sysdate truncating time off

    Hi,
    I am having issues with a date field that I have on a form.
    The field is hidden and has a default set as sysdate. This gets the date OK but it is truncating the time off.
    I have tried using a date picker (DD-MON-RR HH24:MI) , but when I have sysdate set as the default, the time is set to 00:00. If I take the default off, the time is returned OK. The formatting masks are also no use when I have set the default as sysdate.
    As it is a hidden field, using a date picker is not very useful anyway.
    I have also tried using a text item and setting the default as to_char(sysdate, 'DD-Mon-RR HH24:MI:SS') but as the database column that is being inserted into is of type DATE, that is no use either and to_date(sysdate, 'DD-Mon-RR HH24:MI:SS') still trunactaes the time.
    I dont really want to have to start using background triggers to set the time, or use custom functions as this could be problematic in the future to maintain.
    I am currently using Apex v2 although we are looking to upgrade to v4 very soon.
    Any help would be great,
    Thanks

    Hi Jeff,
    I have tried that but I am getting the
    "ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
    01830. 00000 - "date format picture ends before converting entire input string"error.
    I have tried everything I can think of.
    Even if I run it as an SQL with something like
    UPDATE xxmel_apex_at_transactions trn
    SET trn.creation_date = to_char(sysdate,'DD-Mon-RRRR HH24:MI:SS')
    WHERE trn.transaction_id = 412;
    I still get the above error. :-(

  • Time Based workflow not working

    Hi,
    I am facing issue in time based workflow. I designed a worflow with two actions. Wait action is the first action and second action is send email. For send email the from address is current user and TO is owner of the record. One thing I noticed is that its working fine when "I" triggered the workflow and assign owner as "me". Its not trigerring the mail when owner is somebody else. I can see the instance with the following error message in the workflow monitor. "The buscomp Service Request is no longer valid for workflow name ********. The workflow instance ******* has terminated."
