Duplicating One Time Card
There are two ways to duplicate time cards: 1. an exact duplicate containing all the info on the time card, or
2., a duplicate with Employee Info only (the Employee Info is reproduced, but the work hours, MPVs, and
lines of detail on the Pay Breakdown are not).
Duplicate the time card now using the Duplicate Card button on the navigation bar. This will create an
identical card except the Week Ending will default to the millennium (“1/1/2000”) and the status will default
to “Pending”. Let’s pretend this new time card is a recurring cast member who gets paid the same every
week and change the week ending date to 8/12/2006. Now we need to change the individual dates to reflect
the new week ending. Click in the first row of the DATE column, type in “08/07/2006” and then click the
DATE link right above it.
Change the Status to “Completed” and you’re done (if “Completed” is not present as an option in the list,
double-click in the field to enter it). Although the Status is “Completed”, you can still edit the time card later
if required. Like other fields in the time card, the Status field will accumulate a list of the words you’ve
entered in it. Take advantage of this by adding terms such as “Submitted”, “Approved”, “Layoff”,
“Pay Difference”, “Paid” and the like as you need. You can use these terms in the Status field as the basis
of a search of your database using the Find function.
