Using Mass Time
Use the Mass Time Reporting feature to save time and keystrokes when reporting time. It enables you to easily report different attributes of time for a period rather than having to enter them manually for each day in the specified period.
The Mass Time Reporting feature enables you to report time in several different ways by using a template type format. You enter the period of time for which you want to report time and select the method that Time and Labor uses to generate reported time.
Understanding Mass Time
The options in the How do you want to report time? section of the Mass Time Reporting page function differently depending on whether the Regenerate Reported Time check box is selected on the TL Installation page and whether the Create Partial Work Hours for Partial Absence check box and Exclude Holiday for Generating Time check box are selected on Workgroup page.
-
If the Regenerate Reported Timecheck box is selected, then the total number of hours of reported time generated for any day will not exceed the number of hours scheduled for that day. The total number of hours is the sum of absence time taken, compensatory time taken, leave time taken, and non-compensatory leave time taken, less compensatory time earned.
-
If the Create Partial Work Hours for Partial Absence check box is selected, then on any day on which a partial absence is reported, the system will generate reported time in the manner described in the previous paragraph. If this check box is cleared, no time is generated by Mass Time on any day on which a partial absence is reported.
-
On the Mass Time - Select Time Reporting Method page, when you select the Exclude Holiday for Generating Time field, and Report time for selected TRC using scheduled hours is also selected, Mass Time will not generate any reported time on days defined as holidays, even if scheduled hours exist on those days.
