eliminating paperwork and manual processes associated with time and attendance
needs."

customers

allocated to specific projects and customers

.Submission and cancellation of timesheets by employees

.Modification of subordinate timesheets by supervisors and HR administrators to
include the addition and editing of time events

time sheets

The highly prioritized requirements from community regarding improvements of
OrangeHRM Reporting module and the ability to manage former employees of the
organization were also implemented in the 2.2 release. In addition, the employee
personal information management (PIM) and administration were enhanced, by creating
separate PIM module for Supervisors to view their subordinate information.
