Summary of Time Sheet Line Statuses and Time Sheet Statuses

Throughout this guide, the effects of an action on time sheet line status and time sheet status are described in context. For reference, Table 2-7. Time sheet line statuses and time sheet statuses summarizes the possible combinations of the statuses of the lines on a time sheet, the status of the time sheet as a whole, and the conditions that cause the statuses. Remember that a time sheet can have different approvers for its lines, and a line can have more than one approver.
