  3. Select the Edit Time Sheet under Time.
  4. Fill in the time sheet.

Cause

2. Select the Employee view.
3. Select the employee and the Edit button.
4. Go to the Time Account Balances tab.
5. For Time Account ABC, if the balance is Zero, then the deduction posting cannot occur on this Quota account.

Resolution

If you have not updated the Time Account with any quota (days), then follow the below steps to update:

  1. Go to the Business Configuration work center.
  2. Select the Implementation Projects view.
  3. Select the Open Activity list button.
  4. Select the Fine Tune chevron.
  5. Open the Activity Time Accounts - <Country>.
  6. Select the Maintain Time Account Rules link.
  7. Highlight the Time Account.
  8. Go to Accrual Rule tab and update the number of days in Quantity field.

If your system is already Live, then you can use the Change Immediately option to update the Time Account.
