Timesheets
Use the Timesheet application in My Stuff to enter timesheets and submit them for processing, or use the Touch Time application to achieve the same results on your mobile phone or tablet. You can also add timesheet entries directly into your calendar and submit them from there.
Whether you use your computer or a mobile device, you can:
- Enter or edit timesheet data for an open time period.
- Enter regular and overtime hours for each day in a time period.
- Enter hours and/or units for each project that you worked on in a time period.
- Add more timesheet rows to record hours or units for different projects.
- Select different labor codes and labor categories for a project/phase/task.
- Enter comments for your hours or units.
- Submit your timesheet for approval when the time period ends.
- Enter and submit an absence request for time off from work.
Post timesheets in the Transaction Center.
Administrative Responsibilities
If you are authorized to do so, you can also approve, reassign, reopen, or reject other employees' timesheets from the Timesheets form or from the Approval Center.
If you are responsible for making sure that employee time entry is completed on time, you can do a floor check to review the status of time entry for your employees for a timesheet period or for a specific day. When you do a floor check, you can also send messages to employees' notification center, such as a reminder to complete their timesheets.
Touch Time for Mobile Devices
Use Touch Time to perform timesheet tasks on a mobile phone or tablet. Everything that you do in Touch Time is automatically synchronized with the DPS database.
Calendar
You can see timesheet entries in your calendar, alongside events and tasks. You can create, edit, copy, and move timesheet entries directly on the calendar and submit completed timesheets from there. Changes that you make on the calendar are reflected in the traditional timesheet grid view and vice versa.
Resource Planning Data on Timesheets
If you use Resource Planning, you can have timesheets automatically populated with data from resource assignments in your project plans.
Each time that an employee opens a new or in-progress timesheet, a row is automatically added to the timesheet for each assignment for which the employee has planned hours in the timesheet period. The row is populated with the project, phase, task, and labor code from the resource assignment.
