  • By default this will not be ticked.

  • If you save a template, this item will be stored with the template (if ticked or unticked) so you can manage the setting with your templates.

  • Where ‘No Credit Interpret’ has been ticked, slight changes have been made to import validations as follows:

    • The existing validation to ensure that the first (original) timesheet for a weekending date must have positive values, will not be triggered.

    • The logic will check the timesheets job, and if the job has Agreement Rates assigned, the data for that job will be excepted as this process is not supported for Agreement Rate jobs. In the Exception Report an error will display 'Agreement Rate data is not supported for No Credit Interpretation.'

  • All other existing validations will apply.

...

...

  • The logic to credit (offset) the target timesheet’s transactions to find the balance between target and adjustment, will not be run. As such the results will be what was imported, which will include positive and negative values (if using a negative values in import to adjust quantity and or reimbursements). As such in the Primary Interpretation Details Tab, you will not see any offset transactions.

  • In the Interpreted Timesheet Details Tab, ‘No Credit Interpret’ is displayed so users will be aware that this setting has been applied to the imported timesheet’s data.

...

Important Considerations

  • Grouping is still required if you wish to import more than one iteration of a timesheet in one file, for example Original and Adjustment data in one file. The ‘Adjustment Only’ setting in the job is only required if you want to treat all timesheet data including the first timesheet as adjustments.

  • If you Reject, Recall a NCI flagged timesheet in Time & Attendance, or Reverse from Interpreter and then make changes to the timesheet in the UI, it will still be interpreted without offsetting the original timesheet data (where it is an adjustment). We suggest you do not edit data in the UI, as data will no longer be as per the VMS, plus you cannot enter negative quantities in Time & Attendance, these can only be applied via Timesheet Import.

  • Where timesheets have been imported in error, they can be backed out via ‘Recall’ or ‘Reject’ if submitted, and then ‘Cleared’ in ‘Rejected or ‘Incomplete. If the timesheet has been ‘Approved’, providing it has not been released to Pay and or Bill, it can be 'Reversed’ from the Interpreter and then 'Cleared’.

  • If you import iterations of a timesheet out of order ie; negative timesheets first, and then release these to pay prior to including other timesheet iterations for that week end date, there may be issues in the pay process as the net result may impact your ability to process the pay batch. For example, if it is the first timesheet for a new fiscal year, the YTD needs to be greater than zero, if not this will trigger an error preventing you from closing the pay batch.

  • Leave: Additional Item Leave is not supported out of order. The original positive quantity leave needs to be first and then, if incorrect, a subsequent adjustment is required to fully negate the quantity, prior to the next iteration with the correct positive quantity and or rate. This is to ensure that the corresponding Leave Requests are created, then cancelled, then re-created to support what is required. For example;

    • Original TS: 12.12.24 Annual Leave Qty 8

    • Adjustment TS: 1 - 12.12.24 Annual Leave Qty -8

    • Adjustment TS: 2 - 12.12.24 Annual Leave Qty 7.5.
