The Timesheet shows work hours for every day of the set pay period. It shows all tasks the employee worked on, as well as the number of hours spent on each task each day. These tasks either can be entered manually or imported from Work Orders.

Grids
Timesheet data is displayed in three related grids, Summary, Additional Time and Work Orders.
Note: If a Timesheet has been approved locked by a supervisor, a message appears in the top-left corner saying, "This period has been locked and cannot be edited." In such cases all grid tools are grayed out.
The Summary grid recaps the hours in the Additional Time and Work Orders Grids. The Summary grid, which is read-only, appears at the top of the Timesheet.
