Pre-populate your Current Timesheet

Use the Populate button on the Timesheet page to pre-populate your current timesheet with tasks to which you are assigned. You can make adjustments to your current timesheet as needed. Depending on how your administrator has set up your timesheet options, pre-populating a timesheet does one of the following:

• Copies the timesheet entries and actuals from your most recently submitted timesheet into your current timesheet.
• Copies all of your assignments into the timesheet.

Pre-populating your current timesheet does not copy assignments whose finish dates precede the start date of the current timesheet’s time period. For example, if the timesheet period is 10/01/06 to 10/07/06 and the assignment’s finish date is 9/15/06, the assignment will not display on your current timesheet. If you want to add that assignment, you will have to add that task manually. If you did not work on all of your assignments during the current timesheet period, you can delete those you did not work on.
