Setup Job Numbers for Each Task

Setting up job numbers for each task helps ensure accurate tracking and reporting. This guide will show you how to configure unique job numbers per task, streamlining time entry and project management for better organization and efficiency.

1. Login as Admin.

2. Go To Admin > Time Tracking.

3. In the Available Tasks section, click the Details button for the task you would like to configure with job      numbers.

4. Click Manage Per Task Job Numbers Link. 

5. Select Use Job Number - Per Task.

6. Select Job Number Required if you want it to be mandatory.

7. If you want to have a predefined job number, enter it in the Check Against Valid Job Numbers (separate with commas) field.

8. If you opt for a free-text field, you can add validations such as:

    a. Check Job Number Length 

        The valid length of a job number to be entered by an employee. 

    b. Job Number Valid Prefixes(separate with commas)

You can define valid prefixes for job numbers, and if multiple prefixes are to be entered, separate them by commas. 

For example, you might use prefixes like "HR," "ENG," or "MKT" for different departments, and if you're entering multiple valid prefixes, you should separate them with commas - HR, ENG, MKT

9. You can customize the error message for when an employee enters an invalid job number by entering it in the 'Job Number Failed Validation Message' field.
