On this screen, you can modify an existing timesheet type. For each type of timesheet, you can specify the following fields:
Name: Enter the name to be associated with this timesheet type. If you wish, you can use the same name as the pay schedule. To avoid confusion, however, we suggest that you do not do so.
Description: Enter a short, but useful, description of this type of timesheet.
Activation date: Enter the date on which you want this timesheet type to become available. Use the format mm/dd/yyyy. Note that you must enter a 4-digit year. If you omit this field, the default value is today's date.
Deactivation date: Enter the date on which you want this timesheet type to expire and become unusable. Use the format mm/dd/yyyy. Note that you must enter a 4-digit year. If you omit this field, the default value is 45 years from the Activation date.
Color: Each timesheet added can be assigned a color to mimic the color-coding used for paper timesheets by most payroll offices. To select the color that you wish to associate with this timesheet type, click the Color Picker icon (). Click on the color you wish to select, then click OK. CNAV will insert the numeric code that corresponds to the color you picked into Color field. Note, however, that the color displayed in the bar on the left of this screen does not change until you click Submit to enter all your changes on this screen.
