Remarks

You can also authorize a week report if the employee has not done so himself/herself. The hours can then be processed in Isah immediately (unless this week report has hours that must be authorized by a person responsible).
Isah TR can be configured to allow only authorization of days or weeks that are fully accounted for. If this has been configured at your company, and you click the Authorize button, a message will appear saying that authorization is not possible as long as hours are outstanding.
To quickly review and authorize multiple week reports, select the Automatically open next week report available for authorization check box. Isah TR will jump to the next week report to be authorized once you have authorized a week report. Initially, Isah TR will go through all unauthorized week reports of the selected employee. Once you have authorized all week reports of the selected employee, Isah TR will proceed to the first unauthorized week report of the next employee (in alphabetical order).
If you detect a problem with a week report you have already authorized, you can cancel its authorization. In this case, any overtime calculated by Isah TR will be reset to zero. Once you have authorized the week report again, Isah TR will recalculate any overtime and submit it to the employee for his or her approval.
If configured at your company, you may be able to authorize part of the current week if a new month starts in the course of that week. You can then authorize the current week until the start of the new month, so that the current month's data can be processed quickly. If this functionality is enabled and the current month ends in the current week, then an arrow is displayed next to the Authorize icon, indicating that you can choose what to do. Click the icon to choose between authorizing until the end of the month (part of the week), and authorizing the entire week. If you are authorizing only part of the week, you need to authorize the remainder of the week at a later time.
