What's New for Administrators

With the Field Time Consolee 3.8.190 release, Enterprise Admins can set defaults for unapproved timecards, and Field Time Console administrators can specify labor and equipment cost types within the application.

Enterprise Framework Administration

Two new settings have been added to Enterprise Framework:

  • PreventUploadofCostUnapprovedTransactions: Prevents timecards that are not yet cost-approved from uploading to the back office by default.
  • PreventUploadofPayrollUnapprovedTransactions: Prevents timecards that are not yet payroll-approved from uploading to the back office by default.
If you prefer not to use these default options, you can exclude unapproved timecards manually during the upload process.
