Criteria for Shift Display and Selection on Timesheet

This section discusses how the shift value affects the information that is displayed on the timesheet.

  1. Is the time template defined to automatically derive shift?

    • If the answer is Yes the system derives the appropriate shift based on the start and end times from the template.

      Is there an effective-dated record defined for the shifts by service for the date worked? If Yes, what is the shift attributes setting for the shift on this date?

      - Use Default Shift Definition: Skip steps 2 and 3; Shift column is not displayed on timesheet, but shift pay is applied based on rate from the shift definition for the date worked.

      - Define for this Service: Skip steps 2 and 3; Shift column is not displayed on timesheet, but shift pay is applied based on Shift by Service definition for the date worked.

      - Disable Shift for This Service: Skip steps 2 and 3. Shift column is not displayed on timesheet and no shift pay is applied.

      If answer is No: Skip steps 2 and 3; Shift Column is not displayed on timesheet and no shift pay is applied.

    • If answer is No, go to step 2.

  2. Is there an effective-dated record defined for shifts by service for any dates within the timesheet date range?

    If answer is:

    • Yes: What is the Shift Attributes settings for the shifts during the timesheet date range?

      - All are set to Use Default Shift Definition or Define For this Service: Shift column is displayed on timesheet, and all shifts are available for selection. Go to step 3

      - Some are set to No Longer Valid: Shift column is displayed on timesheet, and all shifts with a Shift Attributes setting except Disable Shift for This Service effective somewhere within the date range are available for selection. Go to step 3.

      - All are set to Disable Shift for This Service: Shift column is not displayed on timesheet. Skip step 3.

    • No: Shift column is not displayed on timesheet. Skip step 3.

  3. Has a shift been selected for the time line?

    If the answer is:

    • Yes: Is there an effective-dated record defined for shifts by service for the specific date associated to the hours column?

      If Yes, then what is the Shift Attributes setting for that effective date?

      - Use Default Shift Definition: Hours field is accessible for that date. System uses rate information from Swing Shift Definition for the date that hours were worked, and replaces or augments work order rate accordingly.

      - Define for this Service: Hours field is accessible for that date. System uses rate information from Swing Shift and IT Worker Service Definition for the date that hours were worked, and replaces or augments work order rate accordingly

      - Disable Shift for This Service: Hours field is not accessible for that date. No hours can be associated to the shift for that date.

      If No, Hours field is not accessible, no hours can be associated to the shift for that date.
