How Do I Set Up FYI Routing Queue for Timesheets?

To set up a routing queue on the web timesheets in addition to the supervisor, you will use NBAJQUE in Banner. This allows departments to have more people review timesheets and typically includes the HR Coordinator(s) for the department. FYI approvers are not required to approve timesheets in order for employees to be paid. Supervisors can be added to the timesheet approver page through the instructions linked here: https://service.alaska.edu/TDClient/39/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=1133

You will need the UA ID number and PCN for the employee and the PCN for the person you are setting up as the FYI Approver.

1. Go to NBAJQUE in Banner.

2. Start by entering the UA ID number and PCN for the employee. Then click Go.

3. Next, you'll need to enter three items:

   1. Approval Category: Type in TIME. (then hit ALT-PgDn to move to the next block)

   2. Approver Sequence: Use any 2 digit number. It helps to use any regularly spaced integers (such as 5's) so you can add more people later (i.e. 10, 15, 20, etc)

   3. Approver Position: This is the PCN that the FYI approver is in. Their title and ID number will populate, but you cannot use their UA ID to set them up.

Note: When you set up an FYI approver, they must have an active position in Banner. If their job has ended, none of their employees will be able to submit their timesheets until they are removed from NBAJQUE for each employee, or a new FYI approver is set up in Banner.
