!!!Generate Time and Scheduled Shifts 

The Generate Time and Scheduled Shifts (UEGTS) program is used to generate time sheets within Personality.

This program is used to generate time sheets for all of the different paths outlined in [The Various Paths of Time Management|THE VARIOUS PATHS OF TIME MANAGEMENT]. 

Similar to the functionality of the Generate Pay Transactions ([UPTG]) screen, this function generates scheduled shifts and time sheets or time cards for the employees selected; whereas [UPTG] generates pay transactions for the employees selected.

A time sheet/card contains all of the information pertaining to how many hours an employee has worked in addition to any exceptions that may have occurred. E.g. any vacation, sick, expenses, etc.

[UEGTS] provides for mid-period changes. This is where a new hire or termination that has occurred mid-period or a change to an employee's assignment is applied mid-period E.g. shift change, position change, job change, etc.

The purpose of the [UEGTS] is to generate Time Sheets (WxTTS) with from/to time according to scheduled shifts or Time Cards (WxPTS) with hours.

This function is used in the Time Management Self Service module of Personality.

Employees must have a Work Rule with a Work Calendar.

[UEGTS] can be run over and over, in order to pick up any changes; promotions, terminations, hires, schedule changes, etc.

[UPTG] can still be run for Salaried Employees

[UTTP] builds the schedules shifts, and at the same time the time sheet details are created.

[UEGTS] and [UTTP] can be run in either order.

!!Processing Information

The process can select multiple assignments, however there is a parameter to restrict the selection to 'Prime ONLY'.

The employees’ work rule/calendar will drive what gets generated in Station Schedules ([DTSH]) screen.
