•Work Types - these are used to further analyse employees' time spent as specified on their time sheets.
•Employees - the minimum hours per day and per week can be specified
•Apportionment - allow posting to a parent Customer or Job and allocate to multiple 'children' on submission
•Customers by Department - restrict Customers available to Employees in specific Departments
