The EmployeeTimeItem entity shows the Quantity field, in case user has explicitly entered the Duration field while creating the Time Recording.

In cases where user is entering Start date, End date or Start time, End time combination then the Quantity field is valuated based on other Time Recording settings eg. Breaks. In this case, the data shows in EmployeeTimeCalendarPeriodItem entity.

1. Go to Time Administration workcenter
2. Select Employee view
3. Edit specific employee
