Record Time Tickets Using a Weekly Timesheet

Using the Weekly Timesheet Entry screen, you can record and maintain individual time tickets using a weekly time-sheet format.

  1. From the Tasks menu, select Time/Expense, then Weekly Timesheet.
  2. Select whether to display an Employee or Vendor weekly timesheet.
  3. Enter or select either the Employee ID or Vendor ID that corresponds to this weekly timesheet.
  4. Enter or select the Week Including date to display the appropriate days in which you want to maintain or enter time tickets. If you want to change the first day of the week, click Settings and use that dialog box.
  5. Note: you can use the Copy Last Week button to copy all information for this employee, excluding the actual hours worked.

  6. Select whether the time tickets being completed in this row are for a Customer, for a Job, or for Administrative purposes.
  7. Enter or select the Activity item ID that identifies the event to be recorded for this row.
  8. Tip: To navigate through the weekly timesheet, press the TAB or ENTER key.

  9. Enter or select either the customer ID or job ID associated with the time tickets entered in this row. If you selected Administrative in the previous step, this field will not be available.
  10. Select the Billing status for the time tickets entered in this row. There are four billing statuses available: Billable, Non-Billable, No Charge, and Hold.
  11. Select a Billing type for the time tickets entered in this row. There are four billing types available: Employee Rate, Activity Rate, Override Rate, and Flat Fee.
  12. Enter or select a Billing rate for time tickets entered in this row. Options for entering or selecting the billing rate depend on what billing type you selected or whether these are employee or vendor time tickets.
  13. If an employee is recording tickets entered for this week, then you can select a Pay level associated with the employee's setup. If this is a vendor weekly timesheet, then the Pay Level field will not be available.
  14. Enter the number of hours spent each day of the week on the activity. Enter the duration in decimal format, using the HOURS.MINUTES format. For example, 1.5 represents one hour and 30 minutes. For each daily duration that you enter, Sage 50 will create a separate time ticket.

  • Click Save to record the time-ticket durations entered for the week.

    Note: If employee time tickets are created and the employee is set up to be paid based on time-ticket hours, you can apply the time-ticket hours in payroll.

    Note: If you selected either Billable or No Charge billing status, the time tickets can now be applied to a customer's sales invoice.
