The dialog box lets users control how information is displayed and recorded on a time card.
- Project Position in Time Card - Use Header if the project applies to the entire time card; use Tabular if employees need to record multiple projects.
- Project Task Position in Time Card - Use Tabular to show tasks per line for multiple tasks under one project; use Header if there’s only one project and task.
- Department Position - Use Tabular to assign departments per line when work spans multiple departments; use Header if all entries belong to a single department.
- Basis Position - Includes details like requisitions, POs, and resource planning. Use Tabular to show basis per line when entries vary; use Header if the entire document is based on a single type of work.
