As an admin, you can configure a scheduled job to generate time cards automatically for project tasks assigned to time card users.

1. Navigate to System Definition > Scheduled Jobs.
2. In the Scheduled Jobs list, select Auto Generate Time Cards.
3. Configure the following parameters in the script as per the business requirements:
   • run for (CURRENT_WEEK, NEXT_WEEK, LAST_WEEK)
   • Group Name (includeGroups, excludeGroups)
   Note:

   • If a time card exists for a project task for the time card week, a duplicate time card is not created.
   • Time cards are generated only for those project tasks that are in progress or planned in that week.
   • The Allow time card reporting on field on the project form determines the level that the time cards for the project tasks are created at.

// Clone this schedule job to run separately for different groups at different times
// One of the following values
// TimeCardConstants.CURRENT_WEEK
// TimeCardConstants.NEXT_WEEK
// TimeCardConstants.LAST_WEEK
var runFor = TimeCardConstants.CURRENT_WEEK;

// Comma separated group sys ids or group names. TimeSheet/TimeCards will be auto generated for time card users in the given groups.
var includeGroups = [Database,Hardware];
var excludeGroups = [];

var generator = new TimeCardGenerator();
generator.generateFromConfig(runFor, includeGroups, excludeGroups);
