We are looking to Add a time component to job Adjustment. The out of the box approach only registers the clock in date.
Is there a way to add clock in time/clock in minute to the job adjustment?
I’ve tried to edit the labordtl but the job adjustment doesn’t create a laborhedseq.
Is there a way to edit the labordtl when the laborhedseq = 0?
If you have any suggestions, it would be appreciated.
I would recommend using Time & Expense Entry for those situations. That screen gives you complete control over everything. The only downside would be that you could not make changes once the labor is posted.
Job adjustment’s do not show up in Time and expense entry.
And we’ve restricted Time and expense Entry to payroll.
I’m mainly looking to adjust the Job Adjustments page to take time input and apply that to the labor dtl record.
Correct. I was assuming that there were already labor against the job and you were just looking to adjust it. Changing the time against a job is easier in T&E Entry.
And Epicor has restricted labor time records to Time Entry. Specifically, Erp.LaborDtl.
At the database, Erp.LaborHed contains a payroll entry. Erp.LaborDtl contains labor entries and are related to a payroll entry by a foreign key (technically, foreign-key-ish). There aren’t any exceptions, only workarounds.
Job Adjustment and backflushed labor both post records to LaborDtl. You can find all of your job adjustments via BAQ recorded on Erp.LaborDtl. The LaborHedSeq recorded by either source defaults to 0, which unfortunately prevents maintaining those records. Job adjustments (and backflush) don’t avoid posting a Time Entry, they only look like they do because the workaround they use to do so isn’t maintainable in the Time Entry UI.
My solution for this issue was to create a data directive on the labor dtl table.
When the callContextClient.Processid = “JobAdjustmentEntryForm”. then I can supply the clockinminute/time using the context variables. This injects the values we want in in-transaction
