Option Screen Fields
To

the Login screen or the Timesheet screen.
If
have opened the Options screen from the Timesheet screen, click Close to return to the timesheet. If
you open Options from the Login screen, click Close to exit the application, or click
Continue to return to the Login screen.
Choose
from the following options:
Default
View — This option controls the number of Charge
ID/Description lines that displays on the Timesheet screen. Click
the space bar to select either 3
or 6 lines.
Status
Bar Scroll Speed — This option controls the scroll
speed of the timesheet Status bar. Click the space bar to select either
Fast, Slow,
or Medium.
Timesheet
Line sort — This option sets the order of rows on
the timesheet. Click the space bar to select either Project
ID, Project Description,
or Line Number.
Display
Non-work Days — Select this box to display non-work
days (weekends and holidays).
Default
Auto Populate — Select this box to automatically add
a new charge to your timesheet. When you select this box, the Auto
Populate check box on the Add or Edit charge screen is selected
by default.
Default
Add to Favorites — Select this box to automatically
add new charges to Favorites.
Hour
Entry by Menu — This option enables the Enter Hours menu. To enable
the menu option, click your space bar to select Tenth,
Quarter, Half,
or Whole hour increments (the
hour increments available for selection depend on your company's configuration
settings). To disable the option, select Disabled.
Reset
Password Security Answer — This option displays only if configuration
settings allow employees to reset their passwords. In the event you forget
your password, you are allowed to reset it if you correctly answer the
security question. Enter the answer to the security question in this field.
Display Pending Tasks — Select this
box to display the Pending Tasks screen after you log on.
Scroll Days — Select this option
if you want to move between days of the timesheet period when scrolling
vertically. For example, if you are vertically scrolling through charges
for Monday and scroll past the last charge, the timesheet automatically
moves to the next day, or if you scroll past the first charge, the timesheet
moves to previous day. If you are using a trackball device, you may prefer
to leave this option disabled (clear), because you can scroll between
days by rolling the trackball horizontally. If you are using a trackwheel
device, select this option to vertically scroll between days, or leave
the option disabled and use the keyboard shortcuts.
Use Charge Defaults — Select this
option to bypass the Add Charge screen when the charge you have selected
is valid and complete. If you do not select this option, the Add Charge
screen opens automatically when you select a charge, where you can edit
the charge if desired before it is added to your timesheet.
PIN — This field displays if your
system administrator has configured Deltek Mobile Time to allow logon
using a Personal Identification Number (PIN) instead of a password.
Enter a four digit (PIN) to use in place of your system password. The
PIN is valid only for Deltek Mobile Time. Once you have established
your PIN, you can also use it for other functions within Deltek Mobile
Time, such as signing your timesheet. If you change your password in the
Time & Expense with ESS, you may be required to use the password to
log on to Mobile Time if the PIN and password have not yet synchronized.
