I'm not sure, but it makes sense that they need approval_admin role for such tasks.

Wait, why can't the project manager just be the 'time_lord'? That would be a much more fitting title, don't you think?

I'm going with 'approval_admin'. Sounds like the project manager needs to have that level of oversight and control over the team's time sheets.

'activity_admin' doesn't seem right, it's more about managing tasks than time sheets.

I see your point, but 'form_admin' might be too broad for just time sheet approval.

Hmm, I'm not sure. 'timecard_admin' seems like a good option too, since the project manager is dealing with time cards. But 'approval_admin' could work as well.

I think 'approval_admin' is the correct answer here. The project manager needs the ability to approve time sheets and submit time cards on behalf of the team members, so that role makes the most sense.
