The time entry screen displays time lines grouped by author and date. This gives a view of an author’s time for an individual day (a timesheet). The screen display is split into a header section displaying summary information for the selected days’ timesheet and either a detailed grid display showing the individual time lines included on the timesheet or, a visual representation of the timelines entered in a calendar like format.
By default, the time entry screen will open at the oldest date for which an un-updated time line exists. If there are no un-updated time lines, the current days timesheet will be displayed.
Timesheet Header
A summary analysis of chargeable and non-chargeable time recorded for the timesheet is displayed in both time and value.
If you use time budgets, graphs will display comparing your time budget against the time recorded for the day, month and year.

- change the author displayed by double clicking on the author field and selecting another author code from the drop down list;
