The fixed hours list is an alternative option for filling in Week grid hours. This list only maintains completed hours and not start- and end times. Time slots are booked automatically from the start time of the working day. The fixed hours list shows unique aspect combinations based on bookings in previous weeks, expanded with favorites data. The standard for this function is to go back one week retrospectively. If you need a longer period, you can go to Personal settings. You can also use this setting to determine how you wish times to be shown; as time in hours and minutes, or as decimal hours.
The cross over point of the aspect combination and the day shows the number of hours booked for this aspect combination. The selected cell at this point is clearly displayed with a blue line. For this selected cell (hours booking) the user-defined fields are shown at the bottom of the screen.
Navigation to another week can be done the same way as in the Week grid.
N.B.: Because the fixed hours list does not have start- and end times, multiple bookings with the same aspect combinations and those booked on the same day will be merged.
The buttons have the following functions:
Button(s) |
Function |
---|---|
Add a new line (a combination of aspects). |
|
Use this button to start a stopwatch to record the time used for a task in progress. After stopping the stopwatch the recorded time will be registered. |
|
Indicate where someone worked on which day. |
|
Check entered hours from previous weeks. This button is only visible when too few hours have been entered. |
There is a column for each day of the week and a row for every combination of aspects on which you can create bookings. At crossover points the completed hours can be entered.
Depending on Personal settings times can be displayed as time in minutes or decimal hours. A combination of entry modes is possible. Imagine that the display is set up as ‘Minutes’ and you want to enter times as ‘Decimal times’. It is possible to enter 1.5 or 1:30 and both will be shown as 90.
By activating the ‘tick’ for the required aspect combination in the Favorites column, you will ensure that this combination will always appear in the fixed hours list, even if there are no bookings for this combination yet.
Typing text into the text box above the list, will limit the list to those aspect combinations that correspond to the typed in text.
If you never enter hours for Saturdays and Sundays for instance, you can hide these columns using the column chooser. Click on next to the search text box and select Column chooser from the menu. Remove the ticks next to the columns that need to be hidden. Note that hours booked on the hidden days still will be added to the weekly total.
