2. Workforce Authorization Management
– What is it?
• Role based dashboard for resource assignment, time entry
enablement and time entry validation, change control,
certification language, and enhanced change log
– What does it do?
• Facilitates time entry by presenting the user with the
worklist of end cost objectives that they are allowed to
charge
• Prevents time mischarging and the costly expense of finding
and correcting time mischarges
• Provides for stringent change control, certification language,
and change log for auditability

3. The Problem
Labor mischarging is costly
Labor mischarging misstates project profitability
Labor mischarging makes analysis of employee margins more difficult
Stopping employees from charging is very hard
Labor may need to be stopped while other processes continue
Standard SAP only supports a limited number of ways to assign resources to jobs
Service providers need an easy and flexible way to assign employees to jobs for the
appropriate time horizon
Service providers need to be able to stop employee charging without having to wait for
month end or for the need to change the charge object’s status
