Fields on the Weekly Tab

Note: The fields that are visible on the Weekly tab are based on the Form Profile of the logged on user, not the Form Profile of the employee whose timecard is showing.

The Weekly tab of the timecard has two sections: a Filter section and the timecard section. The Filter section is used to select which pay week to display (see “Find Records” below).

You can show or hide fields in this tab by modifying your Form Profile.

You can change the names of these fields using the Dictionary Label form.

The Filter fields display when you click the Filter button on the Weekly tab. To show or hide the Filter fields, edit the Selection Criteria in your Form Profile.

How Weekly Timecard Data is Displayed

Note: The fields that are visible in the Weekly tab are based on the Form Profile of the logged on user. You can show or hide these fields by modifying your Form Profile.

The left grid of the Weekly timecard displays the charge items and descriptions.

The right grid displays the hours posted to the charge item, the total hours charged to the item, and the total hours posted to all charge items for the entire week.

To display the Daily tab for a date:

  1. Click a date in the right grid.

  2. Use the horizontal scroll bars on the bottom of the form to view each side of the Weekly timecard separately.

    The format of the hours shown on the timecard is determined by your Duration Format setting in the Preferences form. The options are CLOCK (HH:MM:SS) and DECIMAL (0.00).

Standard rounding rules apply to the timecard. Time entered in the timecard is automatically converted, stored, and displayed according to the applicable Rounding Policy. For example, if a person’s rounding interval is configured to be “Nearest Six Minutes” and the duration amount of 1:05 (one hour, five minutes) is entered into their timecard, the system will convert, store, and display the time as 1:06 (one hour, six minutes) to conform to the time rounding rules. The system applies the Rounding Policy of the person whose timecard is being modified. If a supervisor is modifying an employee’s timecard, the employee’s Rounding Policy is used. In the Self Service timecard, the logged on user’s Rounding Policy is used.

  2. Click Sign Week to add your employee signature to the week.

  3. If you are using the Time Card Check feature, and there are hours exceptions in the week, such as underreported or overreported hours, the Time Card Check pop-up form will appear.

If the week includes a split day in a 9-80 schedule, and each half is not displaying separately (the summary_show_mid_period_split_day Form Setting is disabled), a half indicator may display to indicate if only part of the day was signed. The icon will display if you only signed the first half. Likewise, the icon will display if you only signed the second half.
