In the Track application, timesheets are sent daily by Track to the ERP system. The Timesheet Reprocessing feature allows Track Coordinators to resend rejected timesheets or timesheets that have not been received by the ERP, depending on how the ERP interface is set up.
The Enable Resending of Timesheets must be enabled at the Location Settings screen in the Track application to reprocess timesheets. Additionally, permission to resend a timesheet, INV.TS: User can Resend Timesheets, must be assigned to any users performing this task. This permission can be added to the users’ pre-defined profile in the TrackAdmin application. Once the permission is assigned to the users’ pre-defined profile and the setting is enabled, users will see the Resend link on the Allocation Detail Manager screen, also known as Timesheet Central.
Track sends timesheets to the ERP at pre-defined intervals based on the interface settings. Sometimes, situations may occur when timesheets are unsuccessful in sending to the ERP. For example,
The ERP rejects timesheets.
The ERP has not received the timesheets.
The ERP receives the timesheets but has not sent a confirmation number back to Track.
When one of these situations occurs, Track Coordinators can resend these timesheets through the Timesheet Reprocessing feature.
Track can be implemented with the ERP using the one-way or the two-way interface.
The ERP one-way interface is when Track sends timesheets to the ERP without receipt confirmation back to Track. When this occurs, the Sent status is displayed under the ERP Status column.
The ERP two-way interface is when the timesheets are sent to the ERP and when Track receives a confirmation number from the ERP, such as a Service Entry Sheet, SES, or invoice number. When this occurs, the Sent, Document Received status is displayed under the ERP Status column.
On the Allocation Detail Manager screen, users will see different ERP statuses in the Allocation Detail grid. The ERP statuses displayed under the ERP Status column will help determine if the timesheets need to be reprocessed. The ERP statuses are:
ERP Status |
Description |
Ready to Send |
The Ready to Send status indicates that Track is ready to send the authorized timesheets to the ERP. |
Sent, Document Received |
The Sent, Document Received status is used with the ERP two-way interface as part of the ERP timesheet processing. This ERP status confirms that Track sent the timesheets to the ERP and that the ERP sent a confirmation number back to Track. |
Sent |
The Sent status confirms the timesheets are sent to the ERP if the ERP one-way interface is implemented. It is recommended that users should check their ERP before utilizing the Timesheet Reprocessing feature.
If the ERP two-way interface is part of the timesheet processing, the Sent status indicates the ERP has not received the timesheets. However, the Sent status can also mean that the ERP receives the timesheets, but a confirmation number has not been sent back to Track. It is recommended that users should check their ERP before utilizing the Timesheet Reprocessing feature. |
Rejected |
If the ERP rejects timesheets, run the Rejected Timesheets report to review the reasons for rejections. If applicable, users can resend the timesheets with the Rejected status. |
The ERP Last Modified Field column indicates when the timesheets are sent to the ERP. The date and time for the ERP status can help Track users clarify the ERP timesheet processing status.
