Editing Timer Transactions

You can change information that has been recorded in the timer by editing transactions. If the information has already been exported to QuickBooks, make sure you inform the QuickBooks administrator of the changes that need to be made so the exported information can be corrected.

With the timer log open (see the previous task), double-click any timer activity to edit it.

IMPORTANT

If you attempt to edit a timer transaction that has previously been exported, you will receive an alert message advising you that the activity has already been exported. Click Yes to change the transaction's status to Unexported, or click No to leave the status as Exported. Click Cancel if you have decided not to edit this transaction after all.

Change the Customer:Job information if necessary.

Adjust the amount of time if necessary.

Correct the detailed text description if necessary.

Click OK when you've finished making changes.

Did You Know?

Editing is handy when you make a mistake. Maybe you entered the wrong job name, maybe you left the clock running while you took your lunch break, or perhaps you forgot to enter a detailed description of the work you performed. The edit feature lets you correct your entries.
