Hi David,

I'm trying move this thread to the developers. If it works I'll throw some Timecard ideas at you.

I am working on the Timecard and I can't get it to work. When I enter "Labor", a service or "MBB150", a part both valid I get:
Attribute (qty) is required at constructor LedgerSMB::Timecard::new (defined at LedgerSMB/Timecard.pm line 277) line 160

This is version 1.4.28

Where do you start a Project?

We may need to make this a bit clearer. But projects and departments are have now been generalized into "reporting units." And this is under System/Reporting Units. You can then add projects there.

None of the default projects were marked active so I marked Customer as active and saved it. I created a timecard and wend to Generate/Sales Orders. It said there were no active projects.

Because time cards are also somewhat generalized (and could now be issued against a department, for example for payroll -- though we don't have a working full-featured payroll solution, and you could file a material or time card against a manufacturing lot, fo a customized manufacturing accounting flow), timecards are no longer specific to projects.

Thanks

Hi David,

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I've got lots of excuses. Do you want to hear them?
Attached (if it works) is a screen shot of a Sales Invoice with what I think should be the way Services are entered as opposed to an inventory item. Basically what needs to be answered is: When did who do what to whom? How long did it take and how much did it cost?

For us some clients ask for a log of what happened. The Sales Invoice does that.

The Sales Order generated from the Timecards should look like that or at least have the same information.

The Time Frame has a choice of Day or Week. It needs Month too.

I'll try to get a screen shot of Timecard soon.

Thanks
Bob

Hi Bob,

To clarify exactly what you want ( I think it's close to what I'm going
to need for a customer of mine)
could you perhaps do a mockup of what you want to enter on a timecard,
and what you want to see on the order/invoice

Preferably do this on the actual entry and or report screens and simply
take screenshots

Once I can see those I'll discuss with Erik and work on an
implementation that meets both sets of requirements.

David G
