In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, time sheet line posting varies depending on the type. In Resource Management, only the type Resource Task is available. The table below describes each time sheet line type and how Resource Management handles it:
Field | Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central description | Resource Management |
|---|---|---|
[blank] | Use to add a note or marker in the Description field of the time sheet line. Time values cannot be entered for this line type. | These lines are not posted. |
Assembly Order | Used to register time for assembly orders. Created during posting of assembly order lines where the resource uses time sheets. Cannot be selected manually. | Select a resource task of the type Assembly in the time sheet, or the resource task is inserted automatically through a Start/Stop action. Posting creates a capacity ledger entry and value entry for the assembly order. Assembly orders cannot be completed when time sheet lines are pending. When the assembly order is reserved for a project, a project ledger entry is created from the value entry to move all detailed postings from assembly to the project. A resource ledger entry is also posted. |
Project | Use to register time usage for a project. Specify the project number and project task number. You can register time for unscheduled lines. | Select a resource task of the type Project in the time sheet, or the resource task is inserted automatically through a Start/Stop action. Posting creates a project journal line that is automatically posted as a project ledger entry. A resource ledger entry is also posted. |
Service | Use to register time usage for a service order or service credit memo. | Select a resource task of the type Service in the time sheet, or the resource task is inserted automatically through a Start/Stop action. Posting creates a system-generated service invoice line that cannot be deleted. When the service invoice line is posted, a resource ledger entry is also created. |
Resource | Use to register time usage for a resource. Provide a description of the work and a work type code. | Select a resource task of the type Resource in the time sheet, or the resource task is inserted automatically through a Start/Stop action. Posting creates a resource ledger entry through the resource journal. |
Absence | Use to register absence time during a work week. Specify the type of absence in the Cause of Absence Code field. | Select a resource task of the type Absence in the time sheet. Posting creates a resource ledger entry and creates or updates the registered absence entry. |
Production | Not available in standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. | When the Manufacturing Integration app is installed, select a resource task of the type Production in the time sheet, or the resource task is inserted automatically through a Start/Stop action. Posting creates a capacity ledger entry and value entry for the production order. A resource ledger entry is also posted |
