ServiceMax Timesheets for Administrator
Timesheet enables users with admin access in a service organization to define and manage the timesheet configurations for the field service technicians. Timesheet is a defined set of processes for tracking, summarizing, and reporting time spent activities of a field service technician. Timesheets allow field service technicians to record time spent details, define the type of labor and travel, and record calendar events for non-Work Order related work. The Timesheets option in ServiceMax allows determining the relevant technician activities, processing timesheets, and scheduling intervals for processing.
