Manually creating time records

Time Administrators can manually create time records to deduct hours from the available hours or future projected balance on a resource’s absence plan. When the time record is set to Approved or Closed, a service record is created under the plan for the amount of hours specified. Then, if the Process Plans action is run, a use transaction is created for the amount of hours specified on the time record. This is similar to the way a use transaction for a time off request populates on a resource's absence plan.

  1. Sign in as Time Administrator and select Time Entry > Time Records.
  2. Click Create.
  3. Specify this information:
    Employment ID
    Select the resource for whom to create a time record.
    Work Assignment
    Select the work assignment.
    Date
    Specify the date on which you are requesting time off.
    Hours
    Specify the amount of hours you are requesting off for the specified date.
    Pay Code
    Select the pay code that corresponds to the pay code on the absence plan from which to deduct hours. The pay code is located in the Usage Service Class field of the absence plan's balance rule.
  4. Click Save.
    The time record is created in Draft status.
  5. On the Draft tab of the Time Records screen, right-click the time record and select Set To Submitted. After approval is granted, you can right-click the time record and select Set To Approved.
