Timesheet Routing Final Approval

D

I hope someone can help me. For some reason I seem to have an endless
timesheet routing chain. Basically I have a TeamMember who submits a
timesheet to a TeamLead for review/acceptance. The TeamLead approves the
timesheet and passes it to the ProjectManager who also reviews/accepts the
timesheet. The ProjectManager will then approve the timesheet and pass it to
the SystemManager for FINAL approval. But during the final approval process
it wants the System Manager to pass it along to another approver. This is
where I'm baffled. The resources are setup as follows:
TeamMember=TeamMember Group; TeamLead as Timesheet Manager
TeamLead=TeamLead & Timesheet Reviewer Groups; ProjectManager as Timesheet
Manager
ProjectManager=ProjectManager & Timesheet Reviewer Group; SystemManager as
Timesheet Manager
SystemManager=Proposal Reviewer, Resource Manager & Exec Groups;
SystemManager as Timesheet Manager
Also I followed the chain setup as instructed on the Project Experts website
(http://www.projectserverexperts.com/ProjectServerFAQKnowledgeBase/ChainOfTimesheetApprovers.aspx).
Some where I missed something. If someone could help me find what I'm doing
wrong I would GREATLY appreciate it.
Sincerely,
SB

Is system manager an administrator? Admins should be able to approve
anything unless you tweaks their security settings.

No, the System Manager is not an Administrator. We really don't want the
System Manager to have that level of authority.

Timesheet needs to be signed off by one with approve timesheet
category permission of the resource. Please make sure this is at the
end of your approval loop.
