Time Tracking Fundamentals Flashcards
If a worker cannot enter time, what is the first report you should run for troubleshooting?
View Worker’s Time Eligibility
When running this report, what report would you run if the field for Time Entry Template displays as empty?
All Time Entry Templates
When configuring a new Time Entry Template with a new Time Tracking Eligibility rule, what report would you run to ensure that there is no eligibility overlap?
Audit - Workers with Multiple Time Entry Templates
You have created a new time entry code. But during testing, on the time entry calendar, in the time type list, you only have one code in the time entry code category.
A. What is the most likely issue?
B. What are your steps for troubleshooting?
A. What is the most likely issue? The new Time Entry Code may not be assigned to a Time Code Group. Or, the worker is not eligible for the group that you created.
B. What are your steps for troubleshooting? Use the View Worker’s Time Eligibility Report to determine if the Time Code Group is assigned. If assigned, determine if the Time Entry Code is added to it.
You have created a new time tracking eligibility rule that you plan on using for all of your configuration components. However, when you attempt to add the rule to the eligibility tab, the rule does not show up.
A. What are your steps for troubleshooting?
A. What are your steps for troubleshooting? Review the Time Tracking Eligibility rule from the Time Admin dashboard using the List Time Tracking Eligibility Report. Or, use the View/Edit Time Tracking Eligibility Rule and review the Business Objects for the fields in the Rule Conditions grid used to create the rule to make sure that none uses the Position business object. Determine if the rule is too restrictive by removing or changing conditions and re-testing.
What is the first report to run if a worker’s calculated time is different from the expected amount?
All Time Calculations
When running that report, if you have created a calculation for overtime and your report returns the values in the image below, what is the likely issue?
The Time Calculation is not assigned to a Time Calculation Group.
In the report above: (Time Calculation Group is Missing)
A. What field should all time calculations populate?
B. Do all time calculations have an Add Tag and Remove Tag value?
A. What field should all time calculations populate? Time Calculation Groups.
B. Do all time calculations have an Add Tag and Remove Tag value? No, sometime calculations use criteria that do not consider Time Calculation Tags (Time Block Conditional/Time Block Create) and some calculations do not remove Time Calculation Tags (calculations that add a tag for a premium amount that should be paid in addition to the worker’s hourly rate).
When configuring a new calculation, you notice that a worker has a time calculation for daily overtime, however they are not eligible for daily overtime. What are your steps for troubleshooting?
Run View Worker’s Time Eligibility and, if the calculation is included in a group that the worker is eligible for, consider creating a separate Time Calculation Group for the new calculation.
Which of the time tracking configuration components do not have an “ALL” report?
Period Schedules
You have confirmed that the time blocks in a testing period for a worker include an overtime calculation as expected but, when looking at the Summary Totals on the timesheet, you notice that they are not correct. What are your steps for troubleshooting?
Use the View Details button to determine what the resulting Time Calculation Tags are. Access the View Worker’s Time Eligibility for the worker to determine which Time Entry Template they are eligible for. Access the View/Edit Time Entry Template task and review the Totals tab. Update totals as necessary to include the appropriate tags.
Is the Time Admin dashboard configurable?
No, not at this time.
If a worker can enter time in December of the current year but cannot enter time in January of the following year? What are the likely causes? What are your troubleshooting steps?
Access View/Edit Period Schedule to determine if the additional periods have been generated. If they are, review the Open/Lock dates for the period in question. Review the Time Entry Code to determine if the code is restricted for future time entry.
