Creating new timesheets

Accountants Enterprise with Practice Manager only

When you create a timesheet, the system automatically generates a sheet using the time processing category assigned to you by your system administrator. The category translates to a time period shown in the Create New Sheet window when you create a timesheet.

You can choose to display the timesheet in a Periodic, Daily or Calendar entry view and record time in that view. See Timesheet User Settings/System Settings.

You can create a timesheet for yourself or, if you have the authority, one for another employee.

You can create a timesheet using the toolbar or the Employee page, or you can save time by creating your timesheet while working in the Employee Planner or Job Manager.
