    Access is set up for individual users by specific Dept/CUCs (Common Unit Code). Users can prepare time sheets. Users can be given access to all pay cycles or to individual pay cycles as required.

  3. eTime Departmental Application Administrators (DAA) - use eTimeDAA (pdf)

    Access is set up for individual users by specific Dept/CUCs (Common Unit Code). This type of user has access to all forms created by the departments form preparers.

(Note: Each Dept/CUC is required to have a minimum of 1 DAA.)
