1. Access Configure Custom Navigation Tool

• If Configure Custom Navigation is not enabled in your instance, it needs to be enabled in Provisioning before the tool can be used. Please create a Support case to request this.
• If Configure Custom Navigation is enabled in your instance, you can access it by navigating to Admin Center> Company Settings > Configure Custom Navigation or by clicking the link to it at the top of the Manage Action Search page. 

2. Create a new link using URL: /xi/ui/attendancerecordingui/pages/sap/sf/attendancerecordingui/timesheet/index.xhtml?selected_user=@PERSON_USER_ID@

• /xi/ui/attendancerecordingui/pages/sap/sf/attendancerecordingui/timesheet/index.xhtml is the URL to new time sheet UI.
• @PERSON_USER_ID@ is a URL token to dynamically insert SAP SuccessFactors data into a custom navigation link. 

3. Define where the custom link is visible, below Menu Locations can be chosen: 

• Employee Profile - Jump To
• Employee Profile - Employee Records
• Person - Take Action
• Person - Go To

4. After saving the new custom navigation link, click it in an Quick Card or Employee Profile. This will directly lead to current selected employee's timesheet.
