When your administrator has configured PSA accordingly, you can record time against project tasks in timecards via Time Entry or Log a Timecard With Task Time. To do this, see Entering Time Against Project Tasks.
You can configure time against tasks to behave in a particular entry mode. Notes that are saved against project tasks created in the Project Gantt can be viewed and edited on the timecard.
Entry Mode | Description |
Default |
Setting |
---|---|---|---|
Adjust up | When you enter time against project tasks, if the sum of the hours for project tasks on a timecard day is greater than the timecard hours on that day, the timecard hours for that day are set to the sum of the project task hours on that day. If you remove the project task or reduce the hours on a project task, the timecard hours do not automatically change. For instance, if you enter a timecard with two hours for Monday and then enter four hours against a project task for Monday, the timecard hours for Monday change to four. If you then remove the project task, the timecard hours for Monday remain at four. | Use the Task Time Entry Mode setting to configure a time entry mode. | |
Calculated | When you change the timecard hours, the project task hours are not affected on the project task hours. The timecard hours for a day are always set to the sum of the task hours for that day. In this mode you can override the calculated timecard hours for each day. | ||

Freeform | When you enter time against a task, this has no effect on the timecard hours and changing the timecard hours has no effect on the project task hours. Project task and day totals display in the Time Entry page. |
