Ask Support

Q:  I attempted to make corrections to locked/extracted timesheets using the Time export/import method and now the hours have been duplicated, what did I miss?

A:  When making corrections to locked/extracted timesheets via the Time Export/Import, it is a 3 step process that involves:

  1. Running the standard Time import for the timesheet entries that need to be corrected. This file will be copied/updated for next steps and for each of the files to be imported, remember the “work_date” column B will need to be copies and pasted into “post_date” column T
  2. Save a copy of exported file, i.e., Zero Hours file and replace “hours” column H with 0 hours and leave all other columns as is (except pasting dates from column B to column T). Ensure that the only rows on the file are values that need to be corrected. Resave this 2nd file.
    1. When importing this Zero hour file into Unanet, you would choose REPLACE for “Cell Update Method” and behind the scenes this zeros out the incorrect entries
    2. The Allow Adjustments box will need to be checked
  3. The 3rd file is an updated copy of your original file with positive hours, column B work dates copied and pasted into column T post date and update the necessary columns with the correct timesheet data (i.e., labor category, bill rate, cost rate, etc) and save as Correcting Hours
    1. When doing this 2nd import of your file with the positive hours, you would choose APPEND for “Cell Update Method”  (this will apply the correct entries).
    2. Resulting Status should be set to LOCKED unless you want the data to go through the approval process again.
    3. The Allow Adjustments box will need to be checked
