AUTO-ADJUST TIMESHEETS IN BATCH MODE

Use this screen to auto-adjust Regular (R) type timesheets that have not been posted to the G/L, or been computed or posted to payroll, for an individual employee or a group of employees falling within a specific date range in a batch mode. Depending on the screen parameters selected, you can auto-assign timesheets on a one-by-one basis or collectively.

You can auto-adjust R-type timesheets in batch mode any time after they have been entered and only if they have not been posted to the G/L or been computed or posted to payroll.

Timesheet Cycle

Enter, or use Lookup to select, the timesheet cycle for the timesheets you want to auto-adjust in batch mode. This field is required.

Auto-Adjust %

This field displays the percent figure that will be used for the auto-adjustment. The default is the Default Auto-Adjustment Percent field in the Timesheet Periods screen, but you can change it to a different percentage. This field is required.

Auto-Adjust Method

Use this group box to determine how timesheets are to be auto-adjusted in the batch mode process.

Individual Timesheets

Select this radio button to auto-adjust timesheets on an individual basis. Each regular timesheet is adjusted to the percentage of the employee's salary indicated by the entered Auto-Adjust %.

All Timesheets in TS Period

Select this radio button to accumulate all timesheets in the period for each employee so they can be auto-adjusted collectively. All regular timesheets for an employee within the entered date range are accumulated to calculate a total base. Then the base is used to adjust each timesheet line to the percentage of the employee's salary as indicated by the entered Auto-Adjust %.

If an employee had two different labor rates in effect within a specified timesheet date range that you want to auto-adjust, select the Individual Timesheets radio button so that the different rates can be applied. Regular timesheets are auto-adjusted in accordance with the labor rates that were in effect as of the date of the timesheet for the Individual Timesheets method.

When you select the All Timesheets in TS Period radio button, the labor rate in effect as of the timesheet period end date is used for the entire date range.
