Use this screen to correct the billable status, cost rate, or billing rate on recorded time.
The timesheet cost & billing corrections screen provides a way to modify cost and billing information for timesheet items that have already been entered. This if often helpful when changes to the cost rate, billing rate, or billable status need to be modified for billing or payroll purposes.
When timesheet approvals are enabled, this screen will only return timesheet items that are approved or that have been submitted and are pending approval. When timesheet approvals are not enabled, this screen will only return timesheet items that are within a locked period. For more information on the approvals module or locking timesheet items, please see General settings.
