Timecard Template Processing Report (R186303)

When you submit a timecard template for processing, the system generates the Timecard Template Processing report (R186303). Use this report to verify that the system created timecards for all of the employees who are in the employee group and are associated with the timecard template. The Exceptions (errors) section of the report lists employees for whom one of the these criteria is met:

• An error prevents the system from creating the timecard.

• The system creates the timecard, but an error or warning exists.

You should investigate each error and warning and make the necessary corrections before you process a payroll cycle that includes these timecards. If all or most of the timecards are incorrect, you might have entered incorrect information on the template or the associated employee group. In this case, you can cancel the batch of timecards, correct the error, and then resubmit the batch. If only a few timecards contain errors, you can use a time entry program, such as Speed Time Entry (P051121), to review the errors and make corrections. In this case, you do not need to cancel and resubmit the batch.

In addition to the exceptions, the report also includes totals of:

• Employee records that the system processed.

• All timecards that the system created.

• Timecards that the system was unable to create.

• Timecards that the system created without errors or warnings.

• Timecards that contained errors.

• Timecards that contained warnings.

• Hours worked.

• Gross pay.
