Cause
Resolution
A Project Manager usually does not have the authorization to record times for other employees. This is only possible in case he/she is either a 'Time Administrator' or a 'Line Manager of the employee(s)'.
The upload of project time recordings by Excel is currently only supported for external employees (Service Agents). It is possible to use it also for internal employees, but only by the user who has the authorization for the Work Center "Time Administration".
For doing this you may assign "Project Management" Work Center to a time administrator and ask him/her to do Excel upload, or you have the Time Administrator authorization to perform such an upload.
