Timesheet Activities in Timesheets > Setup allows you to set up the activities you want to record time against on Contract Timesheets. You can set up default analysis by activity. You must set up activities to use Contract Timesheets.
In the example shown in Timesheet Activities screen, an Activity has been set up to allow employees to record time spent attending corporate training. The G&A account to capture the cost of training will be defined in the timesheet activity and default to the timesheet when an employee references the activity for training.
Timesheet Activities screen
If the JC parameter USETSUOM is not blank, a UOM field lets you select the units of measure (for example, regular hours or overtime hours) that can be used for each activity.
Use Masking for the analysis as appropriate.
Field | Description |
Activity | Select a code for the timesheet activity. |
Description | A short description of the activity. |
Entry | The type of costing analysis to use for this activity. |
Default Analysis | Default analysis to be used for this activity. |
Credit Entry | Analysis Type of Credit Analysis for posting Timesheet records with this Activity |
Credit Analysis | Masking Analysis to be overlaid onto the Employee Analysis when determining the Credit Posting for a Timesheet record |
Retired | The retirement date of this activity. Retired activities will not be shown in the default lookups, and you will not be able to enter time against them. Associated Parameters JC/DAYSWARN The number of days that you can still enter time against an activity after it has retired. During this time, Coins ERP+ issues a warning rather than an error. Setting DAYSWARN to a high number will effectively mean you only ever get a warning. |
Hidden | Whether the activity should be hidden from the user. |
The above example shows the capability of the feature rather than a recommended structure.
For example we might suggest that all contract recoverable time is preceded by “C” and overhead non-recoverable time is preceded by “O”.
The Entry column determines the default method of costing where 1 = contract, 3 = GL and 5 = Asset.
