Employee Information
Field | Description |
---|---|
Overtime State |
This field displays the OT state charged on the previous timesheet. You can enter, or click to select, a different overtime state for this timesheet. |
Rate Type |
This non-editable field displays the rate type of the employee, based on data you entered on the Employee Salary Information record. Valid values are:
|
FLSA Status |
This non-editable field displays the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) status, based on data you entered on the Manage Employee Salary Information record. |
Group/Union |
This non-editable field displays the labor group or union, based on data you entered on the Employee Salary Information record. |
Transaction Currency |
This field displays the transaction currency used for the timesheet. The transaction currency will initially default from the employee’s Manage Employee Salary Information. However, you can use the Exchange Rates subtask can be used to change the timesheet currency. You can only view this field if you enable Costpoint's Multicurrency (MU) functionality |
Auto Adjust % |
This field displays the auto adjust percentage. This field may populate automatically after you enter data in the Employee field, contingent upon the data you entered in the Default Auto-Adjustment Percent field on the Manage Timesheet Periods screen. Costpoint uses this percentage to recalculate pay, despite the number of labor hours. The auto adjust feature synchronizes the timesheet data with the data on the Manage Employee Salary Information record to eliminate any pay variance. If, for example, a salaried employee works 50.00 hours in a week, enter 100% in this field if the employee is to be paid his regular pay based on data on the Manage Employee Salary Information screen. In this circumstance, adjust the pay at 100%, and the employee is paid his regular base pay for the week. Therefore, this employee is paid for 40.00 hours, even though he worked 50.00. The auto adjust calculation may be performed after you save the record, contingent upon the setup on the Overtime Settings subtask of the Configure Labor Settings screen. Note:
The auto adjust feature works in conjunction with the setup you establish on the Overtime Settings subtask of the Configure Labor Settings screen. Your selections in the Correcting and Labor Only TS Auto-Adjust Options group box determines which employees are eligible for the auto adjust calculation. |

Reference Timesheet Information
Field | Description |
---|---|
Date |
This field displays the date of the original timesheet, in MM/DD/YYYY format, by which to reference this timesheet. This date is not validated against the timesheet date of the other timesheet and therefore can be entered at any time. You normally use correcting timesheets whenever a timesheet error is discovered after the timesheet can no longer be directly edited (after it has been posted to the G/L, posted to payroll, computed for leave, or computed for payroll), and when the original timesheet being corrected has been purged from the Labor Distribution File. |
Sequence |
This field displays the reference number of the original timesheet in order to associate this timesheet with the current one. The reference date and sequence number are used to reference Regular timesheets in order to calculate the auto-adjusted rates. |
Code |
This code refers to the original timesheet type of the timesheet line. If the timesheet type is D or N, then the reference code will be R. |
Auto-Adjust |
Click this button to execute the auto adjust process that adjusts the labor cost, and related hourly rate, for the employees to the amount of their salary. If you selected the Enable for Salaried Employees check box in the Automatic Auto-Adjust group box on the Overtime Settings subtask of the Configure Labor Settings screen and this employee is Salary Fixed or Salary Fluctuating, this button is unavailable. Likewise, if you have selected the Enable for Hourly Employees check box, and this employee is Hourly, this button is unavailable. The auto-adjust function is done automatically. Otherwise, the button is enabled. When Multicurrency Labor is enabled, the auto-adjust functionality adjusts the transaction amounts to match the employee’s payroll salary amount. The Labor Costs (Functional Amounts) will be determined by multiplying the exchange rate by the transaction amounts. |
Generate Fringe |
Click this button to create a fringe handling line. When fringe is generated, if an override hourly fringe amount is assigned to the timesheet’s transaction currency, that override rate will be used to calculate the fringe transaction amount. If an override account is assigned to the timesheet’s transaction currency, that account will be used to build the wage determination fringe timesheet line. |
Prorate |
Click this button to prorate this salaried employee's timesheet. Hourly employees cannot be prorated. If you selected None as your Calculation Method in the Prorate Options group box on the Configure Labor Settings screen, this button is disabled. Vacation time is handled the same way as work time. Holiday time is not included. If you use this functionality, you do not have to enter Leave Without Pay timesheet lines for salaried employees. You cannot use this function on an auto-adjusted timesheet. The application excludes from the day count any days where the only pay types designated are:
|
Calc Func Amount |
Click this button to recalculate the functional currency amounts when you change the exchange rate in the Exchange Rates subtask. If the transaction currency currently displayed on the timesheet is not correct due to the Rate Date, open the Exchange Rates subtask and correct the Rate Date, then click Find Rates (to determine the exchange rate), click Apply, then save the record. You can only view this field if you enable Costpoint's Multicurrency (MU) functionality. |
Negative LWOP | Click this button to create a negative LWOP line for the positive LWOP pay type. You may only add one negative LWOP timesheet line for each positive LWOP timesheet line. |
