Comment | In this field you can enter a comment on the current line. The comment is also displayed on the time sheet line in the window Time Sheets, and can be used to display a message to the employee who entered the line. For instance, you can enter a reason for the rejection of the current line. You can also transfer the standard comment from the field “Standard Comment” in the main tab to this field, depending on the status in the field “New Approval Status” on the line. See also the description of the three actions below which regard the transfer of comments. |
Total | This field displays the total number of hours entered on the current time sheet line. The number is the sum of the hours entered in the Monday – Sunday fields on the current line. For time sheets in days, the quantity is converted to hours. |
Total for Employee | If the activity on the current line is a time activity, this field displays the total number of hours which the employee has registered on time activities on the job in question in the week to which the current line pertains. This means that the field shows the sum of hours entered in the
Monday – Sunday fields on all lines pertaining to the job in the employee’s time sheet of the week in question. For time sheets in days, the quantity is converted to hours.
If the activity on the current line is an amount activity, the field displays the sum of quantities registered by the employee on the activity and job in question in the week to which the current line pertains. |
Proposed Time | This field allows the project manager to specify the number of hours to be invoiced. The employee may have proposed a value for invoicing on the time sheet line, in which case this field suggests the value proposed by the employee. If the employee has not proposed a different number of hours to be invoiced, the initial value is equal to the number of registered hours.
The number of hours suggested for invoicing in the Invoice Selection and Itemize Invoice Selection workspaces is based on the number of proposed hours in this field, pending final approval by the invoicing department. For time sheets in days, the quantity is converted to hours. |
Proposed Billing Price, Unit | This field allows the project manager to propose a unit billing price for the registered hours. The value of this field is initially identical to the value in the
Billing Price Registered field, but the project manager can adjust the value to propose a different unit billing price on a time sheet line.
The unit billing price suggested for invoicing in the Invoice Selection and Itemize Invoice Selection workspaces is based on the proposed unit billing price in this field, pending final approval by the invoicing department. Please note that the proposed unit billing price overrides any price list changes made during the week in question. For instance, if a new price list is introduced during a week that spans across two months, the unit billing price proposed by the project manager or the employee is still applied for the entire week. |
Proposed Billing Price, Total | This field allows the project manager to propose a total billing price for the registered hours. The value of this field equals the product obtained from multiplying the values in the fields “Proposed Hours” and “Proposed Billing Price, Unit.” The project manager can adjust the value to propose a different total billing price. This will cause a subsequent adjustment of the value in the “Proposed Hours” field, leaving the value in the “Proposed Billing Price, Unit” field unchanged.
However, if the project manager proposes a write-up or write-down in this field, while the system parameters “Keep quantity at write-up” or “Keep quantity at write-downs,” respectively, are enabled, the value in the “Proposed Hours” field will remain unchanged. Instead, the value in the “Proposed Billing Price, Unit” field will be adjusted in accordance with this change. The total billing price suggested for invoicing in the Invoice Selection and Itemize Invoice Selection windows will be based on the proposed total billing price in this field, pending final approval by the invoicing department. Please note that the proposed total billing price overrides any price list changes made during the week in question. For instance, if a different unit billing price is introduced in a new price list during a week that spans across two months, the total billing price proposed by the project manager or the employee will still be applied for the entire week. |
Billing Price, Currency | This field shows the hourly billing price of the time sheet line in the currency of the job. |
Previously Transferred | This field indicates whether the time sheet line has already been approved and transferred – and subsequently reopened, changed, and resubmitted for approval.
If the field is marked, the project manager is not allowed to propose changes in the fields “Proposed Hours,” “Proposed Billing Price, Unit,” and “Proposed Billing Price, Total.” In such cases, any additional changes to the unit billing price, the total billing price, or the invoiceable hours must be made in the Invoice Selection or Itemize Invoice Selection window. |
