example in Switzerland the VAT is 8.0%. Under Project you then enter
8.0. For a specific period (called filter in Timesheet) you may for
example work 150 hours in one month, and lets say you are paid 100
CHF/hour then your earning are 15000 CHF. Now upon sending your bill to
your client your VAT is added on top, thus the final bill in
Switzerland would be 15000 * 1.080 = 16200 (shown in the Report tab).
Your VAT amount is 1200 CHF. Question: Can I import all my data from Timesheet into Timesheet2 via sdcard? Answer: Yes in Timesheet under Share, select Backup. Now start Timesheet2 and under Menu, Share choose Restore. Question: Can I share my data via Dropbox? Answer: Yes you can. Drobox has one limitation, since I'm using the same Dropbox folder "Timesheet by Semlasoft" for both Timesheet and Timesheet2. Dropbox does not allow both apps installed on your mobile at the same time and using the same Dropbox folder. For example copying data from Timesheet to Timesheet2 do the following: Start Timesheet, make a backup to Dropbox. Deinstall Timesheet and install Timesheet2, make a Restore from Dropbox. Question: I get the Dropbox message: Security alert, Another app on your phone may be trying to pose as the app you are currently using...? Answer: You have both Timesheet and Timesheet2 installed. Since they are the same use one of them and deinstall the other. Also see Question: Can I share my data via Dropbox? if you first want to transfer your data. Question: I bought a new phone and my data on my sdcard is not found? Answer: There are no standard where the sdcard location is located. Some phones have their sdcard location as internal storage. Due to this you may get problem when switching to a new phone.
To solve this you have to check your current sdcard. Does file timesheet.dmp exists in either /sdcard/timesheet or /sdcard/timesheet2. On your new phone, is the default sdcard location your external sdcard? If it's not you have to move the file timesheet.dmp to the new internal sdcard location. You can now switch to Dropbox backup/restore, this will remove the problem with sdcard and the different locations betweeen different hardware vendors. Question: How can I connect and browse my files on my Android phone? Question: After an update my Timesheet link is broken and I can only start Timesheet through Google Play? Answer: Restart your phone and if you have Timesheet link on your desktop recreate it again. No deinstall and install is necessary. Question: How can I reinstall Timesheet2 after a factory reset? Answer: As
long as you log in/sync with the Google account you bought your app
with you can reinstall Timesheet2 again at no cost from Google Play. There is only a one
time fee, the application you buy in the Google Play is connected to your Google account. Question: How can I restore my data after a factory reset? Answer: In order to restore your old data, you first do a Backup within Timesheet to your sdcard with your old phone, put in your sdcard to your new phone and within Timesheet do a Restore. I recommend to use your Dropbox account to restore your previously backuped data. Question: Error downloading new release in Google Play? Answer: At
some rare occasions the update does not work in Google Play. If this
happens, in Settings, Applications, Manage applications locate Google Play application and "Clear cache". Try updating Timesheet again. Question: Why is the Widget not available? Answer: Due
to restrictions in Android the Timesheet application must be installed
on the phone for the Widget to work. Check phone Settings, Applications,
Manage applications to move Timesheet between phone and sdcard. Question: Problem loading widget? Answer: During
install/deinstall the current widget can produce the error "Problem
loading widget". This is a known problem in Android, just drag the
erroneous widget into the "dustbin" and recreate it. |
