DTR Approval Type
The DTR Approval Type refers to the structure or method used for the approval workflow of an employee's Daily Time Record. The approval workflow may follow either a hierarchical or flat structure, depending on the organization's requirements.
-
Hierarchical. The DTR approval follows the employee's organizational or reporting hierarchy. The request passes through designated approvers based on their level or position within the organization.
Example: Employee Immediate Supervisor Manager HR -
Flat. The DTR approval is routed directly to the designated approver without following multiple levels of the organizational hierarchy.
Example: Employee Designated DTR Approver
