Entering Timecards Using Time Sheet Groups

You can use Time Entry Time Sheet Groups (P051122) to enter timecards for groups of employees on the same time entry form. Using time sheet groups is a useful method for entering timecards if you need to enter similar timecards for multiple employees. For example, if you have a group of employees for whom you would need to enter timecards that include the same pay type and number of hours, you can do so using time sheet groups.

The Time Entry Time Sheet Groups program creates one time entry record for each employee that you select. To use this time entry method, you must first use the time entry filters to select employees for whom you want to enter timecards because this program is accessible only from a Form menu option from the time entry filter programs. You can use either of these methods to enter timecards:

• Time Sheet All

• Time Sheet Select

After you have created a list of employees using a time entry filter, you can enter timecards for all of the employees on the list, or you can create timecards for selected employees within the list by selecting different menu options.

To enter time for which an employee is paid in advance, you must select the Pay In Advance option.

If you need to enter information about a bonus or a lump sum amount, you must create an additional timecard. You can also override information that the system supplies. For example, you might need to override the account number and job location when an employee works a job other than his or her regular job. The system uses this override information only once for the pay period.
