Step 3: Enter Timesheets

When you select the Default Line button on the Manage Timesheets screen, the defaults set up on the Employee User Flow default onto the timesheet line.

When entering your timesheets on the Manage Timesheets screen,  enter control totals for regular hours, other hours, and total hours. Costpoint also keeps a running total of hours and shows you any difference for each of the three categories.

Enter the General Ledger fiscal year, period, accounting period, and subperiod to which this timesheet is posted. The timesheet date must be within the accounting period selected.

Enter the timesheet header information for the employees who worked during the timesheet period:

  • Timesheet Date: This can be any date within the timesheet period.
  • Timesheet Type
  • Sequence Number: The first timesheet has a Sequence Number of 1. If you are processing more than one timesheet for the same timesheet date, increase the sequence number by 1 for each timesheet. You can have a sequence of up to 9 for one timesheet date.
  • Employee ID

The overtime state (OT State) defaults from the Manage Employee Salary Information screen, and you can change it if necessary. Also, you MUST enter information in the Regular field in the Hours group box. If an employee works overtime hours, record it in the Other field, and Costpoint calculates the Total hours worked. You charge all hours on the timesheet lines to various General Ledger accounts for direct and indirect labor. When you are ready to enter hours on the actual timesheet line, select and manually enter the accounts that appear on the actual timesheet itself. If you have set up a default timesheet line, this information displays. The previous timesheet line always defaults to the next line.
