| # Use Assignments (bptmm1204m000) Use this session to copy assignments to hours accounting sessions. You can either specify a range of employees, or click Spec. Employees to select all (active) employees listed in the Specific Employees (bpmdm1140m000) session. Click the appropriate Details button to further specify selection criteria in the Selection Details (bpmdm1800m000) session. Note If you decide to use assignments for more than one transaction type, you will see the assignments of the other transaction types in their equivalent hours accounting sessions. If the Direct check box in the People Parameters (bpmdm0100m000) session is selected, and you use the Use Assignments command, the direct process will not run. This is because you must be able to edit the assigned hours. These hours are processed after closing the session, or with the Direct Processing command on the appropriate menu. For any employee/period combination, an assignment can occur only once in the hours accounting sessions. Use Assignments Of If this check box is selected, you can specify a range for this transaction type.

This enables employees to book hours without being confused or influenced by the labor and/or machine time hours indication as set on the assignments.

When editing the assignment hours, they must make sure that when they save their hours there is no overlap left. Text If this check box is selected, any text is copied as well.
