As a user manager, you can log time and submit the time sheet of your
resources.

## Before you begin

A user manager must have time card approver role to create and edit time cards, and
submit the time sheet of other time card users. The user manager has either of the
required roles and is the one listed as the manager of the time card users.

Role required: timecard_approver

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllTime SheetsTime Sheet Portal.
2. Click My Time Sheet choice list and select the user for whom you want to approve or reject time sheet for under My Resources.  
   The My Resources section lists the time card users
   reporting to you.  
   Note:  
   The choice list with My Time Sheet is available only for a user manager.
3. [Create time cards and log time through Time Sheet Portal](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/KVTUPrnGHT71tZqOGj0xhQ "After you create time cards in Time Sheet Portal, log time in the time cards.") as required.
4. Click Submit.

## Result

* The time sheet of the selected user moves to the Submitted state. The [time sheet
  policy](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/V4v~gHZijlcA4obAren4TA "Time sheet policies contain the policies to which a time sheet, or a time card must adhere.") assigned to the time card user is used for validation when you submit the time sheet.
* All the time cards associated with the time sheet are also submitted automatically and move to the Submitted state.
* The Approve and Reject buttons appear in the Time Sheet section. The two buttons appear only for a user manager.

## What to do next

Once you have submitted the time sheet for your resource, you can click
Approve or Reject to approve or
reject it. Only the time cards that are routed to the user manager, are approved or
rejected. The routing for approval happens based on the Non-project time approver and Project time approver fields in
the time sheet policy of the time card user.
