Keep track of time. Turns on time tracking in your company file. Track your time and/or your employee's time by entering hours worked on weekly timesheets or single activity entry forms (you can use the two forms interchangeably). You can also assign time to particular customers or jobs, bill hours back to your customers, and create time reports that show how your company allocates and uses time. You'll see time tracking items on the Employees menu, a Timesheet button on the toolbar, and four time-related reports on the Jobs & Time submenu of the Reports menu.
First day of work week. Sets the first day of your company's work week. For example, if you choose Wednesday, your timesheets will show all workweeks as beginning on Wednesday and ending on Tuesday.
'Record Time' button opens. Sets what happens when you click Record Time.
Single activity. As you enter single activity entries for a person, QuickBooks also records the entries on that person's weekly timesheet. To view an employee's weekly timesheet, click Timesheet in the Single Activity window.
Weekly timesheet. To display a single activity entry form when you are viewing a weekly timesheet, follow these steps:
In the timesheet, find the column for the day for which you want to display a single activity record.
In that column, find the row where the customer:job and service item are correct for the activity. Click that row in the column.
