E1: 05: How To Create a Timecard and Approve the Timecard of a Top Level Supervisor from Employee P051127 and Manager P051129 Self Service (Doc ID 2944655.1)

Goal

The Employee Daily Time Entry P051127 will not allow the president to save their own timecard and will give an error Supervisor Must Be Specified but when specifying a Supervisor in Organizational Assignment P0801ORG of another employee the error Parent Number Invalid is given.  A supervisor cannot be assigned to the president since any address number would be a sub-employee of the president (recursive error).

The goal of this document is to provide a workaround when an employee is president of the company and does not have a supervisor assigned and the president will be entering timecards in Employee Self Service.
