Overview
The Timesheet Time Entry window collects the information about the time you spend on tasks. There is a different window for Daily Time and Calendar Time. There is no window for Periodic Time because the information is entered directly onto the Timesheet.
The window shows whether your timesheet is collecting Calendar or Daily Time and matches the view you chose to display your Timesheet. If the window is for daily entry, only one date is shown and the words Daily Time replace the word Calendar.
