public TimesheetDataSet ReadTimesheetByPeriod(
    Guid resUID,
    Guid periodUID,
    Navigation select
)

Parameters

  • resUID
    Type: System.Guid
    The unique ID of the resource.
  • periodUID
    Type: System.Guid
    The unique ID of the time period.

Return Value

Type: [TimeSheet Web service].TimesheetDataSet

Remarks

This method uses 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.

ViewResourceTimesheet

Allows a user to view timesheets for a resource. Applies only if the current user is not the timesheet owner. Global permission.

AcceptTimesheets

Allows the user to accept timesheets for approval. Applies only if the current user is not the timesheet manager. Global 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.
