Project/Activity

Many of the fields on this page are the same as those on the Report Rapid Time page for punch time.

Field or Control Description

TRC (time reporting code)

Select a time reporting code. This field displays if it was selected on the rapid time template.

Quantity

Enter the number of hours, units, or an amount for reporting time.

Rates

Field or Control Description

Billable Indicator

Select Yes to send this time reporter's billable time to the Billing application.

Override Rate

This rate is passed to the payroll system for use in pay calculations. It is critical for sending the correct pay rates to payroll and is a required field for PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management users.

Note: PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management automatically populates this field by performing lookups in the assignment rates table. Also note that to meet FLSA requirements, the system populates overtime pay rates with regular time rates and relies on the payroll earnings code multipliers for the FLSA premium pay to be calculated.

Bill Rate

The rate the customer will be billed as specified on the assignment.

Note:

If you report the business unit, department, customer, PeopleSoft PC business unit, project, activity, resource type, resource category, or resource subcategory in a Rapid Entry session for an employee, you must have previously defined these task elements on the employee's associated task template to avoid task exceptions during the validation of time.

Note:

PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management automatically populates the HR Business Unit and Department fields on the Rapid Time record by doing lookups in the assignment cross reference and job tables. This information is particularly important if you want to use the Project Costing cost-revenue sharing functionality. (PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management assumes that the GL department against which the labor costs are posted is of the same value as the HR department for which the employee works.)

Assignment Information

All fields are optional and only appear if they were selected on the rapid time template.

Field or Control Description

HR Department

Enter the department code.

The system displays the customer associated with the project (order).
