Time Code Header
Enter a Time Code (5 characters) and an appropriate description. This one Time Code can then be used with multiple Costing Lines to create different Cost rates for different combinations of Employee Classes and Activity Codes.

'Inc Cost' option
If a time code has the "Inc Cost" flag set, then the timesheet lines entered against this time code assign the quantity entered to the Allowance Quantity on the line, and set the quantity itself to zero. This enables allowance quantities to be entered and included in the cost against an Activity Code without the quantity being added into the timesheet hours.
