Time calculation rules

Conceptintermediate

Rules that create or update time card entries and use the data to create calculated results based on formula logic.

Recall it

State what a time calculation rule does that a time entry rule does not, and say where the delivered formula and template names are actually published.

A time entry rule validates entries and generates a message with a severity. A time calculation rule creates or updates time card entries and uses that data to create calculated results based on formula logic. The delivered template names, rule names, formula function names and database item names are published in the Time and Labor Fast Formula References, document 1990057.1, not on the rule types page.

Memory hook: Entry validates, calculation derives. No name is teachable from the summary page; 1990057.1 is where they live.
