Specific Approvals: Time Cards
In MYOB Acumatica, you can set up the approval functionality for employee time cards, equipment time cards, or both types of time cards, depending on your company's policies.
An employee time card logs an employee's weekly work hours and any overtime. On the other hand, an equipment time card tracks the duration of equipment use. If applicable, time can be logged to specific projects and project tasks.
For more information about employee time cards and equipment time cards, see Time Cards.
