Using work order numbers

e-timecard lets employees charge to work order numbers on time cards rather than company job numbers. The program automatically inserts the job number for the employee, unless work orders are not linked to job numbers for that org9, in which case the employee must enter a job number manually.

The topics that follow have separate instructions for creating both work orders linked to jobs and unlinked work orders. You can also find out how to change and delete work orders.

Note the following settings that are relevant to work orders.

• You define the mask for the work order number format on the Company Setup screen.

• You can redefine the term “work order” on the Company Setup screen to reflect the terminology that your company uses. Whatever term you use appears on all screens and messages in e-timecard.

• At the org9 level, you decide whether work orders are linked to jobs.

• If you want the work order to appear in the Extra Information area at the bottom of the time card, then in e-timecard Initialization you can select the work order as one of the time card's user-defined columns.

• If work orders are linked to jobs, then in Parameter Setup you can select to display work orders on every time card line.

Note: The e-timecard export program does not pass the work order number.
