Recording daily time in MYOB AE
Accountants Enterprise with Practice Manager only
You can create a timesheet from the toolbar or from the Employee page. If you have the authority, you can also create a timesheet on behalf of another employee by opening their Employee page.
Enter the amount of time spent daily as you complete each task. You can also choose to display a timesheet in a Periodic or Calendar entry view so that you can record your time in that view. See Changing timesheet data entry modes.
If there is no more time to record, advance the timesheet in the process using the Post Now button so that the time is reviewed and subsequently authorised.
See Daily timesheet fields for more information when using Daily Entry timesheets.
You can edit and delete entries in the timesheet if:
it has not been posted.
the time processing period has not closed (or expired).
you have access permissions to do so.
