Adding Override Details

Use the Override page to override a previously entered value or add a comment about a time or expense record.

You may enter time in the following formats: HH:MM or HH.XX. Here is an example of each format:

• HH:MM, where HH represents the Hours and MM represents the minutes, e.g., 8:25 = 8 hours and 25 minutes

• HH.XX, where the HH represents the Hours and .XX represents a numeric value used to calculate the minutes, e.g., 8.25 = 8 hours and 15 minutes or 8:15

• If you are assigned to a primary Time Reporting Group (TRG) with the Time Reporting Option set to Time, you will enter the Time In and Time Out fields to calculate the hours worked. Click here for an illustration of the Add Time page used to enter Time In and Time Out.  Your organization may use this option if it requires you to enter breaks (e.g. lunch breaks) as part of the time reporting process.
