Project Status

Operations and the Business Center has determined a standard set of naming conventions, and are in the process of bulk creating the organization structure of CAHNRS, in Cougar Manager.  We have identified all of the positions and employees to be entered, and have begun adding them.  As we finish a unit’s structure, we will send a notification to the department admin and unit head asking for them to review and approve the structure.  This is a significant data entry project, but we expect to be complete by close of day 1/26/18.

Continue to use Timekeeper until February 1st

For now please continue to use Timekeeper to record hours worked, and only begin using Cougar Manager to record time worked starting February 1st.
