To create a time sheet for yourself, you must be defined as a contractor
in the Ariba Buyer system and have at least one labor line item from
a purchase order assigned to you. (The status of the purchase order
must be Ordered or later.) To create a time sheet for someone else,
you must have the permission CreateTimeSheet and select a valid contractor.
If you worked under different pay codes on the same day, such as if
you worked regular time and overtime, you must create a separate entry
for each different pay code. In some configurations, you might need
to enter pay codes in a particular order. For example, you might need
to create an entry under the Regular pay code before creating an entry
under the Overtime pay code.
If you need to create several similar entries, such as 9 AM to 5 PM
Monday through Friday, it can be faster to create one entry, copy it
multiple times, and then edit the dates or other unique data in each
entry.
Dates and times for time sheet entries cannot be in the future. If
you are creating a time sheet for someone else, and you are in a different
time zone from that contractor, the dates and times you enter are for
your time zone, not the contractor's.
A single entry cannot span more than one day. For example, if you worked
from 10 PM to 2 AM, create an entry for 10 PM to 11:59 PM and a second
entry for 12 AM to 2 AM.
If available, click the Table Options icon, located in the row above
the column headers, to display commands that control
the display of data in the table. For example, you can hide or
show columns of data, group data, or export data to Excel.
