Entering Timecards Using Speed Time Entry

After you have selected employees for speed time entry, you can use Speed Time Entry to enter timecards. If you do not want to select employees before entering their timecards, you must enter timecards from either the By Individual or Speed Time Entry menu selections, both of which supply the same time entry form.

Use Speed Time Entry to enter all of the employee's timecards on the same form, using each row as a timecard.

You can track this equipment information for employees who work with equipment:

• Equipment ID number.

• Number of hours that the employee used the equipment.

• Equipment billing rates.

• Equipment costs and expenses.

To facilitate more efficient timecard entry, you can set the processing options so that the system copies certain information from one timecard to the next. For example, after you enter the minimum amount of information that the system requires to create a timecard, the system can supply the business unit, work order number, and account number from the timecard that you previously entered.

You can also set processing options for the Time Entry MBF Processing Options program (P050002A) to direct the system to enter certain pay information automatically on each employee's time entry form. For example, you can specify that the system assign a next number to the Batch field and to supply a pay rate.
