Creating Timecards for Simple Time Entries

Your selection for the Process Time Entry Records By setting in the 5-6-6-Time Entry Settings window determines whether entries are sent either to 5-5-1 Daily Payroll for processing or to the 5-6-5 Create Timecards window.

You use the 5-6-5 Create Timecards window to create payroll records for approved time entry records only if time entries are not sent automatically to 5-5-1 Daily Payroll as entries are approved.

  2. From the Pay Period list, select the pay period for which you want to convert time entries.
  3. In the Check Date box, select the date for which to process the paychecks.
  4. In the Payroll Quarter box, enter the payroll quarter to which to post the checks.
  5. If you want to select individual employees for whom to create timecards, click the arrow beside the Employee Pick List box, and then from the Employees pick list:
    1. Double-click each employee for whom you want to create a timecard.

      Selected records are indicated in red.

    2. When you have finished selecting employees, click [Insert Selected Items].

  6. Click Create Timecards.
