Do the following:
1. Log into PWA with Administrator permissions and then navigate to the PWA Settings page.
2. In the Time and Task Management section of the page, click the Timesheet Managers link.
3. On the Timesheet Managers page, add the people whom you want to approve Timesheets.
Next, ask the new Owner to open each of his/her enterprise projects in Microsoft Project and then do the following in each project:
1. Apply the Gantt Chart view.
2. Right-click on the Duration column header and select Insert Column on the shortcut menu.
3. In the list of available columns, select the Status Manager column.
4. Specify his/her own name for EVERY task in the Status Manager column.
5. Hide the Status Manager column.
6. Save and publish the project.
Regarding the second set of steps, these steps must be performed by the new project Owner. They cannot be performed by you. Hope this helps.
