Note: It is recommended that you enter the employee’s costing details in either of the activities “Entering Employee Costing Details – for an Employee” or “Employee Costing Details –for a Cost Center”. If an employee’s attendance details have been recorded through both activities, the system treats them as sequential attendance entries and adds up the attendance units. Example: Jean Peters’ attendance units have been entered through the Employee Costing Details – Employee-wise; her attendance at CC-Finance is 20 and at CC-Marketing it is 4. Her attendance details have also been entered through the Employee Costing Details – Cost Center-wise for CC-Marketing, and 6 attendance units. The system now adds up the attendance units and records them as CC-Finance = 20 and CC-Marketing = 10
