Activities

 

An activity defines a type of work that a resource can undertake. These can be specific work that may be charged to projects (design, testing, installation) or may be more general activities (training, administration, holiday). All recorded time is booked against an activity and so you must set up activities that cover everything against which time can be validly recorded.

Select Business Entities then Activities from the Administration menu and a search screen is processed. Change the search to list other options:
