Adobe Workfront AD0-E908 Question # 19 Topic 2 Discussion

To create a new hour type named "Training and Certifications" for the creative services team, the system administrator would need to take the following steps:

Navigate to Hour Types:

Log into Adobe Workfront as an administrator.

Go to the Setup area by clicking on the Setup link in the upper-right corner.

Under the "Timesheets & Hours" section, click on "Hour Types".

Create a New Hour Type:

Click the "New Hour Type" button to create a new hour type.

In the Name field, enter "Training and Certifications".

Set the Hour Type as General:

In the Hour Type settings, ensure that the "General" option is selected. This ensures that the hour type is general and not tied to specific billing or project-related activities.

Select “General” from the available options. This categorizes the hours as non-specific to a particular project or client work.

Uncheck the "Count as Revenue" Box:

There is an option labeled "Count as Revenue" which, if checked, considers the hours logged under this type as billable revenue. Since training and certifications are not revenue-generating activities, this box should be unchecked.

Ensure that the "Count as Revenue" box is unchecked to prevent these hours from being considered billable.

Save the New Hour Type:

After configuring these settings, click "Save" to create the new hour type.

Ensure all necessary details are correct and then save the new hour type.

These steps will create a new hour type named "Training and Certifications" that appears on timesheets, allowing the creative services team to log hours for their training and certification activities.

The steps for creating and configuring hour types can be found in the "System Admin Essentials" section of Workfront documentation and training materials, which cover detailed administrative tasks (Webinar - Admin Essentials - User Experience - Apr 27, 2022)​​.
