PRS Essential Reference > Timesheets

The New Timesheets Tool creates a list of new timesheets that you can then selectively process.

The vacancies which contribute new timesheets are those where:

•	The vacancy Status is Filled

•	and the vacancy is of type Contract/Temp

•	and the Timesheet tool checkbox on the Vacancies form is checked.

The From/To dates in the New Timesheets dialog are used to set the Timesheet From/To dates, they do not determine which vacancies contribute new timesheets

When you create new timesheets the Final checkbox will be ticked if the contract has finished i.e. the end date (start date plus duration) is less than today's date. The Final checkbox prevents any more timesheets from being generated by the New Timesheets Tool, it does this by resetting the Timesheet tool checkbox on the Vacancies form after the current timesheet has been successfully processed.

TIP: If you just want to finalize timesheets without processing them press the Select None button before executing the Process Timesheets command.

•	New timesheets are not added to the Timesheets table until they have been processed with the Process Timesheets... command from the New Timesheets Tool or Existing Timesheets Tool.

•	You don't have to process and commit the list of new timesheets immediately, you can Close the New Timesheets Tool and come back them later (using the Existing Timesheets Tool) when you're ready to finalise the new timesheets.

•	Only selected timesheets (those with the left margin checkbox ticked) are processed You can return to the New Timesheets Tool later to select and process more of the remaining new timesheets.

•	Unprocessed new timesheets are stored locally in the PRS client so unfinished new timesheet processing should be done on the same PC they were first created.

•	Unprocessed new timesheet information will be lost if you upgrade or reinstall the PRS Client.
