Hi
We have an idea that we can use the BC standard functionality to define projects in the job module and let the workers in the field report time on the projects via timesheets in the android app.
The functionality has many shortcomings and there is really room for improvements, but we have found work arounds for most issues.
I think this must be a quit common scenario, so does anyone have a complete description of how to set this up?
Currently I have specific problem that I would also like to ask you about.
As mentioned we want our workers in the field to enter time registrations with the app for android and this part seems to work. Not brilliant but ok.
The current problem is that we do not want some back office people to create work sheets. When the employees want to register time for the first day in a week, they must be able to create a timesheet themselves. This is also possible but the timesheet has this stupid thing that the timesheet is not considered as an "open" timesheet before it contains at least one line. This is also stupid in the PC web app, but there it is possible from the list of open time sheets to remove the filter "Open Exists = Yes" and then we can see also the time sheets without lins and start working on adding the lines.
I have created a new timesheet TS00083 with the phone app and when i open the "Open time sheets" report on a PC, this new timesheed is not visible ...
... but if I remove the "Open Exists" filter I can see this new timesheet in the PC web app:
...but in the android app I see no option to change or remove filters.
This is the Open Time Sheets program in App:
...and if I press the 3 dots in lower right corner, I get this menu - with no filter options:
So, the big question is - can I remove or change the report filters when I open the report in the phone App?
