Start Time

Enter the time of day when the work began in 24-hour format. In 24-hour format, you enter 8:30 a.m. as 0830, and you enter 5:08 p.m. as 1708 (1200 is added to p.m. hours).

If you enter the start time and end time, the system calculates the Total Hrs field automatically and displays it after you finish entering data. You can leave the Start and End Time fields blank and calculate the total hours for the job, and enter that value in the Total Hours field. In this case, question marks appear in the Start and End Time fields. This field applies only to transaction types setup, run, indirect, and C machine.

Note:  Whether the field for hours or minutes is active depends on the time format selected in the Reporting Time Units field on the Shop Floor Control Parameters form.
