Overview

The Daily Timesheet is used to track exceptions to schedules, such as an employee taking a sick day or working late. The Daily Timesheet is also used to charge the hours that are worked against metrics such as specific jobs, projects, or departments.

Before an employee can use the Daily Timesheet, a system administrator must do these tasks:

• Set up and assign a shift pattern, which creates a repeating schedule of shifts and days off.
• Assign a default labor allocation, which divides the employee's time between jobs, projects, and departments.

Supervisors can then choose to create the employee's schedule from these default records, copy a schedule from a previous time period, or reschedule specific days.

Employees use the timesheet to record sick days, lateness, or any exception to their planned schedule. They can record their time worked against different departments, jobs, or projects if it does not match their default labor allocation. They can also record overtime through the Daily Timesheet.

After entering any overrides, users submit their timesheets for approval. Supervisors can use different summaries to view timesheets and approve them all at once or individually.
