Tempo Timesheets can only approve users' timesheets manually. For some customers, they can write up their own script to look for approval event when a user has submitted their timesheets, then “auto-approve” their timesheets with Server REST API.

The timesheet approval event casts an object with the following parameters:
{
id=108,
userKey=beverly,
actorKey=john,
reviewerKey=john,
status=approved,
period=0121,
dateFrom=2021-01-01,
dateTo=2021-01-31,
periodType=BILLING,
periodView=PERIOD,
reason=Great job!,
workedTime=0,
submittedTime=0,
requiredTime=576000,
action=approve
}
2. With Server REST API, you can run this POST http://localhost:8080/rest/tempo-timesheets/4/timesheet-approval
{
"action": {
"comment": "This is my comment.",
"name": "approve",
"reviewer": {
"key": "jeanDoe"
}
},
"period": {
"dateFrom": "yyyy-MM-dd"
},
"user": {
"key": "johnDoe"
}
}
Some other customers uses ScriptRunner to achieve it without writing their own script, which you can refer to our KB’s on Event listeners.
