Description
FastTrack360 supports the ability to send in-email timesheet approval notifications to timesheet approvers, whereby a copy of the timesheet is rendered within the body of the email message as are Approve and Reject action buttons that the approver can click to approve or reject the timesheet without having to log into FastTrack360.
An enhancement has been made to the in-email timesheet approval functionality so that a confirmation message is now displayed, as shown in Figure 1 below, when the Approve or Reject actions are invoked within an email message. That ensures that human interaction is required to confirm the approval or rejection of a submitted timesheet.
Benefits
This enhancement prevents inadvertent approval of timesheets when using in-email timesheet approval. Automated scanning software can be enabled on an email server to scan for illegitimate links within email messages and that can, in turn, trigger the approve/reject actions within an in-email timesheet approval message. By providing an additional confirmation prompt that requires human interaction, this enhancement prevents such automated processes from inadvertently triggering the approval of a timesheet.
Configuration
If you have already configured in-email timesheet approval notifications, no additional configuration is required to enable this enhancement.
