I am trying to send an e-mail out to the employees whose timesheets have been rejected, much like Workflow automatically sends e-mails to the approver once the employee submits the timesheet, except an e-mail notifying the employee that their timesheet has been rejected. I am not sure how I would set that up in Workflow. Can anyone direct me?

You're right, there is no out of the box existing WF message for a rejected timesheet.
However, there is nothing that prevents you to clone one of the existing WF messages and use that as your rejection notification.
go under : Administration >> Setup >> Company >> Workflow >> E-mail Message Setup
Enter the name for a new WF notification e-mail and use the copy button :
Copy for example the WF TIMESHEET APPROVED* message and adjust the content of the body to your likes.
Be careful to copy / paste the content of the original body & Subject once the copy is completed into a Notepad, because there is a bug in the process (at least in 2015) that does not set the 'Series' with the copy process, and since this is a mandatory field, you have to select a series (Project) to be able to safe the new message. There will be a warning that this will reset the content of the Subject & Body to default, and as a result wipe out the field variables from the text body & header.
The end result would be something like this :
Hope this helps.
There is no template for a rejected timesheet in GP2018.
Hi Kim,
In GP 2015 in the WF Maintenance form under Administration, you'll have to select an action for 'reject' notification :
I'm not sure this is checked by default when you create a new WF for Project TS approval.
