Manage Timesheet Batches

Use the Manage Timesheet Batches screen to enter timesheet batches.

A batch can be an individual timesheet or a group of timesheets.

You can use this screen to estimate the number of regular and overtime hours associated with a batch. You can also estimate the number of timesheets associated with a specific batch. These estimates are performed before you enter data in the Manage Timesheets program.

You must create a unique batch name and enter this information in the Batch ID field. After you save your record specifications, the batch ID becomes available in the associated with the Batch field in the Manage Timesheets screen. It is here that you can link the batch to specific timesheets.

After you save timesheet records in the Manage Timesheets program, the timesheet line detail, as it pertains to labor hours, is automatically imported into the table window of the Manage Timesheet Batches application.

You can compare your estimates to the actual timesheet data. If there are gross differences, you can return to the Manage Timesheets screen to review or revise the timesheets before you post them.

This screen, therefore, serves as a validation tool which allows you to examine the timesheet line detail to ensure content accuracy before you execute the Post Timesheets program.

Initialize this screen before you process records in the Manage Timesheets program.
