Common Elements Used in This Section

Field or Control	Description
Add/Replace	Values include: Add and Replace. Replace: Default value that informs the system to replace any time that was entered for the same dates through the Rapid Entry page with the time that you are entering now. Only time originating from those two sources is replaced by the new instance of time. Time originating from any other source, such as the Weekly Elapsed Time page or Time Clock Device does not change. For example, when reporting rapid elapsed time, if the Add/Replace value is Replace, the system replaces all the elapsed time that exists for an employee on that same date that originated from the Rapid Time Reporting component. It does not affect any punch time that may exist. Likewise, when reporting rapid punch time, the system replaces all punch time meeting the same criteria and does not delete any elapsed time. Add: Select if you want the system to add a new instance of time for the day without replacing any time that was previously reported for the same day. The system adds the time generated by the Rapid Entry page to the Reported Elapsed table (PS_TL_RPTD_ELPTIME) or Punch Time table (PS_TL_RPTD_PCHTIME).
Copy Down Values from Last Row	Select this check box to copy the values from the previous row when adding a new row to the grid.
Date/Time Stamp	If this is a new session, the date and time that you accessed the page appears. If you are updating a session, the date and time that data was last saved for the session appears.
Delete	Select this check box to mark this row for deletion. You can remove this row by clicking the Delete Selected Row(s) button.
Empl Rcd# (employee record number)	Displays employee job record number for your selected project and activity. The system automatically populates this field based on an assignment cross-reference table maintained by Pay/Bill Management.
PC Business Unit	PeopleSoft Project Costing business unit.
Project	Project ID associated with the time that you are entering. Note: Make sure the dynamic group is updated; otherwise the project or activity may not appear in the prompt.
Increment Date	Select this check box to have the system increment the date as you add more rows to the grid. Use this check box when you use the Add Rows and Copy Down Values from Last Row buttons. This feature is only available for rapid entry, Elapsed time sessions.
Rapid Time Template	Determines which data entry fields appear in the Rapid Detail Information section.
Session Number	Displays the session number as 9999999999 until you save the page, at which time it automatically assigns the session number.
Session Status	Indicates whether you have run the Submit process to validate the time entries for the data entry session. Values are: Submit: Indicates that you submitted the session and the entries were validated. Not Submit: Indicates that you have not submitted the session. Resubmit: Indicates that you modified a session that was previously submitted. Submit TA (submit time administration): Indicates that you submitted the session and processed Time Administration automatically. The Automatic Rules Run check box must be selected to process Time Administration automatically. Note: If the system is unable to complete the Submit process because of an error, the session status still reads Submit. After fixing the problem, you can resume processing by selecting the Restart option on the Process Monitor.
Submit	Click to validate the data that you entered. The system saves the data and sends it to PeopleSoft Time and Labor tables in the HCM database. You cannot make any changes to the session until the Submit process is complete.
Template Type	Select the template type. Values are: Punch: Use for reporting start and stop times in precise entries of date and time, recorded in seconds, minutes, hours, day, month, year, and time zone. Elapsed: Use for reporting time in hours or partial hours. Note: Do not change the template type after saving data. Doing so causes the system to delete any data entered with the original template. Instead, create a new session with the desired template type. Similarly, if you change from one template to another of the same type (elapsed to elapsed), any of the data that does not match the current rapid template is deleted upon the submission of the session.
User ID	If this is a new session, your user ID appears here. If you are updating a session, the user ID of the last person who entered data for the session appears.
