Time Entries Accessible to Financial Manager
Click To Explore
When the Financial Manager role was introduced, it was authorized to maintain the information in the ‘Financial Details’ section of product, CI and person records. From the account’s Records console it could only access the following record types:
- Products
- Configuration Items
- Contracts
- Organizations
- People
As time records play an important role in tracking the total costs of a service, the reports that are based on time entry data can now also be accessed by financial managers. These are the reports with names as ‘Time Spent’, ‘Cost of Time Spent’ and ‘Cost of Time Spent by Service’.
From these reports, financial managers can drill down into individual time entry records.
A Note From the Road: What SPARK Taught Me About Time
During the second SPARK event in Antwerp, I stood at the back of a training room and watched a customer build a custom integration with our new iPaaS, wiring Xurrent to another system in her stack that had never talked to it before. No services rep doing it for her. No statement of work, no project plan with a kickoff and a go-live date. Just a person with live beta access in her hands, connecting two systems by hand, and finishing it before her coffee went cold. A year ago that would have been a multi-week project with a budget attached. She looked up, a little surprised it had actually worked, and said something I have not stopped thinking about since. She said it just gave her her week back.
