5.1 Timesheet Entry
Select Timesheet Entry from the Process menu, or type in
the keyboard command equivalent, <cmd-T>, to call up the Timesheet
Paycode Parameters dialog window.
The purpose of the Timesheet is to record the number of hours logged
by each employee.
5.1.2 Timesheet Paycode Parameters
The Timesheet Paycode Parameters dialog must be filled out before the Timesheet Entry dialog can be accessed. The three number fields represent the paycodes for regular wages, overtime, and double time, from top to bottom.

The paycodes that are entered into these three fields must already have been
entered via the Paycodes command, which can be found in the Payroll
menu. For more information on this function, see section

Click 'OK' when you are finished filling in the dialog to continue to the
timesheet. Click 'Cancel' if you do not want to fill out a timesheet.
Once the timesheet has been called up via the Timesheet Entry command
and the Timesheet Paycode Parameters dialog, it should be filled out as follows:
