Timesheets Import

Timesheet data can be imported from other sources (typically a Time and Attendance solution) to create Time transactions against Workbench Jobs.

The Transaction date will automatically determine the appropriate Timesheet Week Ending Date for the imported transaction.  If there is no timesheet existing in Workbench it will be automatically created

The cost created on the imported transaction is Standard Costing, based on the Employee setup within Workbench. Note this is a ‘standard cost’ basis, independent of Payroll.

In the absence of the required Work Breakdown Structure in the import data, this structure can be derived from the Employee setup

The Sell Price on these imported transactions (for Input Based Billing) is automatically derived from the Price Code attached to the Job Code for the transaction.

The standard Labour Journal will be created for this imported time, with the DR / CR GL Accounts derived from the Workbench setup. This Labour Journal would be exported to the financial software.
