Apprenticeships: Non-Time Card Allocations
Table of Contents
Background & Motivation
A Non-Time Card Allocation allows you to record an apprentice’s prior experience from hours that were not logged in DSPTCH. For example, if an apprentice begins work on a DSPTCH-tracked project but has already accumulated 2,000 hours of experience, those hours can be added using a Non-Time Card Allocation.
Adding this allocation ensures that DSPTCH can accurately track the apprentice’s Wage Progression Schedule going forward.
How to Create a Non-Time Card Allocation
Start by clicking the Apprenticeships Tab from the primary navigation bar at the top of the screen. Then, click the "Apprentices" Tab from the sub-navigation bar near the top of the screen. From there, select the apprentice who will be receiving the Non-Time Card Allocation. Click the apprentice's profile.
From the apprentice's profile, click the "View Allocations" Button. Then, click the "Non-Time Card Allocations" field. Next, click the "+ New Allocation" Button. Lastly, enter the number of hours/minutes for the allocation, select the Work Process Category, and click the "Save" Button.
A green box with a success message reading "Allocation was successfully created" will appear at the bottom of the screen to indicate that the Non-Time Card Allocation was successfully created. The apprentice's Wage Progression Schedule Progress Bar at the top of the subsequent screen will now reflect the hours from the Non-Time Card Allocation.
