Parameters

Remarks

This method submits jobs to the QueueSystem object. The CorrelationGUID property for the job is equal to the value of the TS_UID property.

Project Server Permissions

Permission

Description

Non-standard

The current user is the timesheet owner.

CreateSurrogateTimesheet

Allows the user to create a surrogate timesheet. Applies only if the current user is not the timesheet owner. Category permission.

Examples

The following code example determines whether a timesheet exists for the first open period. If it does, the example reads the timesheet. If the timesheet does not exist, the example creates a timesheet with the default timesheet lines that are specified on the server.

For critical information about running this code sample, see Prerequisites for ASMX-Based Code Samples.
