Updating Your Timesheet Template to Track Non-Accruing Time

There may be times when you’ll need to track hours that should not count toward the total number of hours listed in your Timesheet Association. Perhaps you want to track lunch or meal breaks in this way. Or, maybe you have reporters that are serving as AmeriCorps members and as volunteers for your program. 

Curious about what scenarios this might be helpful for? Check out details in this article.

Here are the steps for updating your template: 

1. On the left, in your Mission Control, click Timesheets.
   
   

2. On the right, click Create & manage timesheet templates.
   
   

3. Find the section of the template called Time Allocation Categories and click Create a Category

   
   

   
   
4. When the window opens, give it the Category a name.
   
   
5. To make the Category non-accruing, find this section and select No. (This means time for this category will not be removed from the minimum number you've established in your Timesheet Association.)
   
   
6. Click Update to save your changes.
   
7. Next you'll need to find the Hours Type Labels section and update these labels appropriately.
   
   These labels will appear in the Where You Are table for your reporters.
   
   

Important: Changes made to the timesheet template will be effective immediately.
