Reporting Inspection Time

You can record the time that you spend working on inspections for the purposes of billing and reporting in the Oracle Inspector web application.

Access time reporting by clicking the Time Reporting link on the Time recording panel in the inspection detail panels. Here you can:

• View and sort time entries for an inspection.

• View time entry details, including the job title bill rate.

• Enter time for an activity.

• Delete time entries.

This example illustrates the Time Recording page with the New time drawer for entering a new time record.

Click the Add (+) button on the Time Recording page or inspection details panel to add a new time entry. When you add a time entry on the New time drawer, you record the duration of the activity, whether the time is billable, and comments. You enter this information for each time entry:

Page Element	Description
Name	Select the inspector for the time entry.
Date	Enter the date for the time entry, such as when work was performed or travel occurred.
Time Type Code	Select the code for the type of time recorded from the drop-down list. For more information about time types, see Setting Up Time Entry Types.
Category and Subcategory	Displays the time entry type category and subcategory defined for the code. For example, the category and subcategory could be Inspection and Inspection Travel, respectively, depending on the agency setup.

Bill Rate (USD) and Override Bill Rate (USD)	Displays the bill rate in U.S. dollars that was set up for the inspector's job title. For more information, see Defining Job Titles. You can override the job title bill rate, if you have time recording management permissions.

When you save the time entry, it appears in the list of time records on the Time Recording page in the inspection details.
