TO:All Employees and Timesheet Approvers

SUBJECT:      UA Web Timesheet Project Update and Demo

Project Update:
UA’s Information Technology Executive Council (ITEC), composed of leaders from each MAU, determined web timesheets to be UA’s #1 automation priority. Over the past year, a project team with representatives from each MAU has been working on developing the new UA web timesheet process. You can access the list of project team members online.

Upon implementation, UA employees will complete timesheets in UAOnline, the same site now used by employees to review paystubs and benefit information. Employees will be able to access their timesheets in any location with internet access. In August, you will see a new timesheet link in UAOnline under the employee services menu. However, until the tool is fully implemented, only those employees who are in the pilot group will be able to access the online timesheet.

A pilot for the non-exempt employee web timesheet will begin August 15, 2011. Each MAU has selected a limited number of non-exempt employees and timesheet approvers to participate in the pilot. A pilot for the exempt employees and faculty is targeted to begin in November. During each pilot, selected employees and timesheet approvers will use the new processes and will actively provide feedback for improvements.

Online Demos & Survey are available
While the August pilot group will involve only those employees in a few departments at each MAU, the project team would like all non-exempt employees and timesheet approvers to have the ability to preview the online non-exempt timesheet and provide feedback that may help us refine the process and the electronic tool being created. More detailed online demonstrations will be created for training of employees and timesheet approvers prior to full implementation.

Please view the high level demonstration of the new non-exempt web timesheet at the following link to see its current state of development. The demo takes only 10 minutes or so to watch. After you have watched it, please provide your feedback through the survey link noted below.

If you are a timesheet approver, please view both the non-exempt employee demo and the timesheet approver demo.  These are viewable from within the UA Domain. Then complete the same survey to provide your feedback.


Thank you very much for participating in the demo and assisting with feedback for the project team!  Additional information on the Web Timesheet Project can be found at the following websites:
