DEFAULTS  

Use this subtask to set up default information that can be used to create a timesheet line for the employee.

You must initialize this subtask to have a default timesheet line display in the Enter Timesheets screen in Costpoint Labor for an employee.

Employee

This non-editable field displays the employee ID from the main screen (along with the employee's name in the field to the right) for whom you are initializing the following defaults.

Timesheet Line

Use the fields in this group box to enter values that will be offered as defaults for the first timesheet line entered on a timesheet for this employee. Each subsequent timesheet line will default to the previous timesheet line's value for that field. If you select the Default Ln pushbutton while entering timesheets (in the Enter Timesheets screen in Costpoint Labor), all the fields below will again be offered as defaults. These fields are optional unless otherwise noted.
