OpsOpenTimeCardBatch

Time cards are imported into Projector using a three step process:

  1. Open a time card import batch. This provides a batch id. The OpsOpenTimeCardBatch web service will open a new batch and return a batch id.
  2. Load one or more time cards into the pending batch. This loads the data into a temporary staging table for later processing. The OpsImportTimeCards web service adds time cards to a given batch. This web service may be invoked multiple times, each time adding one or more cards to the open batch.
  3. Process the batch. Create time cards in the system from the contents of the open batch. The OpsCloseTimeCardBatch web service closes and processes a batch.

Request
