How Time Categories Work in a Time Consumer Set

You need to select a time category for each time consumer that you select in a time consumer set. Here's what the time category identifies:

  • Which time entries the validation rules of the time consumer apply to
  • Which time entries make up the time data transferred to the time consumer.

Typically, you use the delivered All Project Entries and All Payroll Entries time categories with these respect time consumers: Project Costing and Payroll. The All Payroll Entries time category includes both hours-based and units-based time data.
