Contents of the Apply Timesheet Adjustments in Batch Mode Screen
Use the fields and options to configure the Apply Timesheet Adjustments in Batch Mode screen.
Identification
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options, if there are any, are also included in the saved parameter ID. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID |

When you save your record, all the selections made on the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query. You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display on the screen, you can override the defaults. |

If the mandatory leave's labor cost needs to be adjusted, a timesheet line will be generated that will adjust the labor cost down or up to the expected labor cost. For example, if the employee charges 10 hours to the mandatory leave and has an hourly rate of 20.0000 on the Manage Employee Salary Information screen, the employee's timesheet labor cost would be 200.00 (10 hours x 20.0000).

Auto Adjust Method
Field | Description |
---|---|
Auto-Adjust individual timesheets |

Auto-Adjust all timesheets in timesheet period |
Select this option to accumulate all timesheets in the period for each employee so they can be auto-adjusted collectively. All regular timesheets for an employee within the entered date range are accumulated to calculate a total base.

If an employee had two different labor rates in effect within a specified timesheet date range that you want to auto-adjust, select the Individual Timesheets option so that the different rates can be applied. Regular timesheets are auto-adjusted in accordance with the labor rates that were in effect as of the date of the timesheet for the Individual Timesheets method. When you select the All Timesheets in Timesheet Period option, the labor rate in effect as of the timesheet period end date is used for the entire date range. |
