Hello,
I write to advise that since the company I work for has upgraded to 25R1 SU9 - our users who are serving in a managerial role, where they need to authorize time of personnel who report to them - find themselves unable to authorize employee time entries via the Quick Time Authorization screen.
I have established that the likely reason for this is that our permission sets that previously had full rights to projection: QuickTImeAuthorizationHandling
now have only partial / custom access level.
My intention is to go through our internal processes to obtain authorization manually regrant the new, but not yet projection action grants.
For our management to be able to make an informed decision regarding what projection action grants and entity action grants should sensibly be granted - it would be helpful to understand exactly what each projection action for QuickTimeAuthorizationHandling actually does.
Action names obviously need to be a sensible length, however sometimes a short name - even when it's made up of a few words (e.g. GetAuthPeriod) does not mean that the actions function is clear.
In the absence of a detail column inside IFS that explains what each of the new projection action grants do - please could you provide short explanation of each of the projection action grants for QuickTimeAuthorizationHandling?
I attach provide a table below of projection action grants present for QuickTimeAuthorizationHandling along with whether they were present in 24R2 SU4. Whilst I am interested in them all, I am particularly interested in the purpose of the new actions (i.e. those that were not present in 24R2 SU4) since these will be those that will need to be considered by our management.
I have not asked about the Entity Action Grants since there were three before the update and the same three afterwards.
Product Version: 25.1.9
Business Impact: At present, anyone who needs to authorize time within the company I work for cannot use the Quick Time Authorization screen to do so - whilst previously they could.
