Time Entry, Review, View, Approval Notification, and Calendar Entry Layout Configurations

The time entry, review, view, and approval notification layouts are essential layouts and all classic and Redwood nonunified layout sets automatically include them. They include the calendar entry layout only when you don't select the Responsive UI layout.

Configure these layouts using the Layout Sets task in the Time Management work area.

Time Card Fields

You can replace the default fields and add more nonunified and unified fields that you want to appear on the time card. Also change display names. If you want the complete names to appear, limit them to 70 characters or less. The display names appear here:

On existing time card pages in the Time work area
On the Report Time dialog box opened from the Time work area calendar
On team time card pages in the Time Management work area
As column headers in the time entry and calculated time tables

The sequence of the fields is important for data filter dependencies. For example, your layout includes location fields. You need to select a state before you can select a county. And, you need to select the county before you select a city. To set field sequence for classic layouts, you need to use Personalization. Otherwise, classic time card pages ignore field positions in the time card matrix table. To set field sequence for Redwood layouts, you need to enable the unified time entry experience.

You can select the fields that together uniquely identify time entries on dialog boxes for change audit. People open these dialog boxes from classic time cards and see these fields and their values for each changed time entry.

On the time review layout, you can also whether to display the owner and entry source as column headers on time review pages.

Time Entry Properties

Here are the time entry properties that you can configure. The specific properties vary by the layout that you're editing and apply to the pages and dialog boxes that the layout defines.

Enable the entry of negative time and time spanning midnight.
Display the unit of measure column and the option to highlight overtime periods.
Specify the time entry and date formats, and the precision of time display using decimal places.
