entering days in timesheet, wrongly translated to hour

[Kurt Verhaegen]

We have resources which have a calendar and working regime of 40 hours/week
and others who have a calendar and working regime of 37hours/week.
If we publish a project, and the users are filling in their timesheet, but
instead of filling in 8h or 7.4h per day, they enter 1d, the system will
translate it to 8h instead of taking the correct resource calendar.
It seems that the system takes the task calendar or project calendar which
is wrong from the standpoint of timesheet and entering your actuals.

Anybody experience on how to get a correct translation of days to hours when
entering actuals in the timesheet?

Tx, Kurt

The solution is to train users to enter hours, not days, in their timesheets.

Your system has a single definition of the number of work hours in a day,
and in your case, that is 8 hours. so, anyone who enters 1 day of work is
marked down for 8 hours of work.
