Note: the term the "target software package" refers to the type of plugin used. So if you are using Accountants Office, the target software package will refer to Accountants Office.

Using the Plugin Postmaster (See also Plugin Introduction)

Use the Postmaster at the end of each session to assign which Client, Job and Work code the collected time is to be allocated to.

Note: Time sheet records that have not yet been posted are considered "Unprepared". When a client, job and work code are assigned to that time sheet and posted, the record becomes "Prepared". When a prepared time sheet record is committed to the target database, it becomes a "History" time sheet record.

	Post Data:Post data collects all timing data for the named Client, Job and Work code. When a record has been posted, the time value is reset to zero and a new session begins. Allow Discovery Work code Association option checked (see also Plugin Options) duplicate posts to the same client, job and work code on the same day are accumulated to one value. See also the difference between posting as you go, or Preparing a record manually using the Control Panel. The Post Data and Notes buttons will only be enabled if there is timing data to post.
