Timesheet warning message

[Paul Linscott]

Several of our users receive the following message on their PWA home page:
"Your timesheet has not been submitted for the periods 3/28/2005 - 4/3/2005."

The users have entered and submitted time on mostly all the tasks during the
period of question and the PMs and administrator updated the project plans.
The tasks are from an administrative project and normal projects.

Also - we use the manage time period functionality as of 3/28. All periods
are closed outside of the current reporting period.

Under which condition/criteria will this message appear? I would think that
if a user enters even partial hours during a period, the system should flag
the timesheet as being updated for that period.

thx for your help

I forgot to add the manage period settings:

Our Tracking settings as follows:-

default method for reporting progress on tasks: Hours of work done per
day or per week
Lock down defaults: Force project managers to use the progress
reporting method specified above for all projects.
Time period settings: Managed Periods - Allow only Project Web
Access
users to update actual during open periods
Managed Timesheet periods: Resources should report their hours
worked every day

I read other threads on this subject. It seems that the only way to avoid
this message is to disable the manage period option. Maybe I'm wrong.
Hopefully help is on the way.

cheers

Paul
