Recording Actual Work Time on a Timesheet

Accessibility Tip: To display tool tips for timesheet reporting cells, select the Display tooltips in time reporting cells option in the Accessibility section of your Preferences (Ctrl+Alt+P). When using a screen magnifier, these tool tips aid table cell identification.

To record actual work time on a timesheet:

  1. If your timesheet uses daily reporting format, select the cell that corresponds to the activity and date for which you want to enter time.

    If your timesheet uses period reporting format, select the cell in the Total column that corresponds to the activity for which you want to enter time.

    Note: An application setting determines whether you enter time daily or by reporting period.

  2. Select an activity.

    In Classic View:

    1. Type the number of regular hours you worked on the activity in the cell corresponding to the date the work took place.
    2. To report an estimate for your remaining work select Expand and change the value in the Time Left field.
    3. If you have permission to record overtime for an activity, select Expand and type the number of overtime hours in the Enter Overtime Hours row.

In Standard View:

  1. Type the number of regular hours you worked on the activity in the spreadsheet cell corresponding to the date the work took place.
  2. To report an estimate for your remaining work type the number of hours in the Remaining Units column.
  3. If you have permission to record overtime for an activity, type the number of hours in the Actual Overtime Units spreadsheet field.

    Notes:

    • An administrative setting determines whether you have permission to log overtime hours. If you do not have permission to log overtime hours, the overtime hours rows are not visible to you.
    • Another administrative setting controls whether you can enter hours as a decimal value, hours and minutes, or rounded to the nearest quarter-hour. For example to enter 2 hours and 20 minutes, as a decimal you would enter 2.33, as hours and minutes you would enter 2:20 and rounded to the quarter-hour you would enter 2:15.
