Introduction

Our app integrates with the following products:

1. Tempo Timesheets
2. Tempo Planner

Tempo Timesheets

If you have Tempo Timesheets installed, worklogs are automatically created in Tempo Timesheets for all approved time-off requests. See Synchronization for more information.

To be able to view worklogs in Tempo Timesheets, you must:

• have Tempo Timesheets Access, and
• have the appropriate team role and permissions in Tempo (e.g. View Team Worklogs).

Tempo Planner

If you have Tempo Planner installed, plans are automatically created in Tempo Planner for all requested and approved time-off requests. 

Each plan is created for a maximum of 1 day in Tempo Planner. This means that if a user requests 15 days off in BambooHR, 15 individual plans are created in Tempo Planner, one for each day requested. Your configured units of measure in BambooHR are applied as part of the sync (see Synchronization).

The following additional details are captured in each Tempo plan:

• User: the Jira user who requested the time off
• Issue: the Jira issue that was synchronized as a time off request from BambooHR (see Synchronization)
• Description: Time Off for User X
• Date: see above
• Planned time: this corresponds to the number of hours requested in BambooHR
• Reviewer: BambooHR for Jira
• Status:
  • Pending for requested time off
  • Approved for approved time off

To be able to view resource plans in Tempo Planner, you must have the View Team Plans permission for the teams to which the resource belongs.

The screenshot below shows a mixture of pending and approved time off requests that were sync'd for 'The Dream Team'.
