Move the In/Out time

Moving an IN or OUT time is used to assist with pairing up events to match a schedule, especially when a labor resource has worked over midnight and does not have an over-midnight schedule. After an event is captured, it can be moved to match up with other events for a specific timesheet date. The event that is moved to a different day does not replace any of the events that already exist. When moving the event, the IN or OUT event is moved to a different timesheet date. The actual event's date remains the same.

  1. From the IN/OUTs Details grid, click the <<Move link, under the -1 Day column, on a line item to move the time back one day (yesterday).

  2. Otherwise, click the Move>> link, under the +1 Day column, on a line item to move the time forward one day (next day).
