The date of the Work record is displayed at the top of the page. This cannot be changed.

Note: The fields displayed may differ from those in the previous example. Example fields include:

• Start and End time — the start and end times for the Actual lateness, the default is the start of the day
  
• Hours value — this is calculated from the Start and End times you enter
  
• Hours type — Actual lateness is recorded by default and cannot be changed
  
• Hours code — you must select an Hours code. The list contains only specific TMS Absence codes defined for Actual lateness
  
• TAS categories — optional fields to describe the lateness. There are two TAS categories in the previous example: drop-down lists called 'Department' and 'Location', each containing a list of codes or values to select from
  

Select or enter the relevant details then click  Submit  and return to the Edit work record page, or click Cancel to discard your changes. The new Actual lateness hours are added to the Actual lateness panel and highlighted with a  Draft  tag. For example:
