Overview
User Time Entry supports time entry by a user/employee when the employee has been pre-assigned to a Work Order Routing Operation (See Work Orders > Operation Assignments by Work Center). Time Entry is done by first selecting the user/employee. The financial impact of a Time Booking is a debit to the Work In Progress Manufacturing Sub Ledger Account (from the Inventory Commodity Code or overridden on the Inventory Item Master) and a Credit to the Division Labor Clearing Account. Overhead costs are calculated if enabled on the Manufacturing User record.
NOTE Even if employees are pre-assigned to a Work Order Operation, the Time and Quantity booking function may still be used
Application
This program can be used when a user (employee) is set as the Assigned To on Work Order operations. User Time Entry allows that employee to record Labor Hours and/or Completions to the assigned Work Order operation(s), which updates the labor costs charged to and/or the quantity completions against the operation(s).
