Timesheet periods and the Scheduler on Cloud vs on Data Center

Timesheet Period Configuration is one of Tempo’s basic settings that needs to set up right after the Timesheets app is installed. For those who need to have the Timesheets Approval process, Period Management and the Scheduler also need to be configured.

Similarities:

All 3 features - Period Configuration, Period Management, and the Scheduler - are available for Timesheets on both Cloud and Data Center, with some minor differences as described below.

Differences:

Here are a few more details on each of these differences:

• Period Configuration on Cloud has only one default period, but on Data Center, there are two different Periods for customers who use different calendar years and fiscal years.

• The Scheduler on Cloud can be found in Tempo Settings, whereas on Data Center, the Scheduler is inside Jira Manage Apps > Tempo.

• The Scheduler type is called “Monthly” on Cloud, but is called “Period” on Data Center.
