Reference

This is your reference for the placement.
This value must be unique; no other placement can have the same reference code.
InTime allows this value to be created automatically from a sequence, if required. If this option is enabled, you won't be able to edit this value as the system will generate it for you.

Perm

Tick this checkbox if the placement is permanent.

Bulk

This setting enables the administrator to enter timesheet information on behalf of the worker. However, while the bulk entry setting is enabled, the worker will not be able to fill in their own timesheets. Therefore, we recommend you only enable this option while the administrator enters the timesheet information for the worker.

Agency

Only Administrators and Consultants can enter timesheets for this placement if ticked.

Alternative Managers

Alternative managers are typically used to approve a timesheet or expense if the primary manager of the placement has not done so (although this will depend upon the approval route).
The managers who are available for selection are shown in the left-hand box, and those who are actually selected for the placement are shown in the right-hand box. You can use the arrows to move managers from one box to the other.
