Work date is available through PR and TM Module, but some employees do not have access to those modules. Could the work date be included in the "Additional Information" column in job cost history. This would help accountants and project managers with many items, including job cost re-classes, site management, and anaylsis.

Hello!
Let me give you some background as to why we have a 'work date' in Payroll (and by extension TM). It has to do with the fact that in Payroll, you get to choose when transactions hit the G/L and Job Cost.
In the beginning of my time with Spectrum, we could only post transactions to the Period End date or the Check Date. (i.e. that one day...) Later we added the abiltiy to post by Work Date.
So for the folks that are posting their Payroll by the Period End Date or Check Date (i.e. all one lump sum on that day), we offered the ability to search by work date.
To keep Job Cost in balance with the G/L, we post to Job Cost in the same manner as the transaction was posted to the General Ledger.
I'd check your Payroll Installation | Properties tab to see which option your company has selected. Options include Pay period end date, Check date and Work date.
One last thing...in the event that you do not enter the actual day on the time card line, we will post it to the check date by rule.
Hope this helps you find your transactions.
Geoff
