Timecards

In Project and Job Costing, you charge job-related labor costs to projects using timecards. Note that:

• The program uses weekly timecards as the default, but you can edit the start and end dates for individual timecards, if you use a different pay period.

• You enter wage cost transactions for individual employees using the Time Details tab or the separate Timecard - Time form. You enter a separate timecard for each pay period.

  You specify the:

  • Days of week to which the wage expense applies.

  • Wage expense for each contract, project, and category for which the employee worked during the period.

  • The earnings code.

• You reimburse employees' out-of-pocket expenses using the Expense tab.

If you use security in your Sage ERP Accpac system, employees with timecard access can enter their own timecards, indicating when the timecards are ready for approval. Later, someone with the required authorization can approve the timecards for posting.

If you use Sage ERP Accpac Payroll, you run Update Payroll to create timecards in Payroll from those that you have posted in Project and Job Costing. You can then generate employee checks in the usual way. You can also import timecards from and export timecards to Payroll.

To enter an employee's timecard

To print a transaction listing, choose Print Transaction Listing from the File menu. The Transaction Listings report form opens, where you can specify the transaction type and range of document numbers to include on the report.
