Quick Summary: Allows you to edit the database of Time Record Descriptors. You may add, delete or edit descriptors, and set links between different descriptors (for example, link Hourly Rates to Clients). How to Get There: Records/Edit Record Descriptors
This window allows you to add, edit, or delete time record descriptors. It also lets you allow or disallow runtime changes to the descriptor database. For more detailed information, see Working with Descriptors. Here's a description of the controls in this window: Combo Boxes By default, the combo boxes are labeled Person, Client, Project, Subproject, Activity, Rate, Other, Internal Rate, Tax Rate, and Mileage Rate. However, your labels may be different if you have customized them. You will use the contents of these fields to categorize the time record. The three buttons at the right of each descriptor combo box let you add, edit, or delete the descriptor respectively. Click the button with the green plus sign to add a new descriptor. To edit the currently selected descriptor, click the button with the picture of a pencil on it. Clicking the button that displays a red minus sign will delete the currently selected descriptor. Graphical View Click this button to see a graphical display of the descriptors you've entered. Import Chose this button to import descriptor data from a text file. You might use this to take in client names or other descriptors from another application, or to share descriptors between two sites. For information on the file formats, see Import/Export File Formats. Export When you click this button, Time Logger will export the descriptors to a text file that you select. Each line on this file will contain the data from one descriptor, showing its text, type, text that it's linked to, and the link to type. For more on the file format, see Import/Export File Formats.
