Issue/Introduction

When Timesheet hours are entered via 'Total' column in Modern UX so that the hours are spread over the corresponding month then the data entered gets changed to a different value.


Steps To Reproduce:


1. In 'Timesheet Options' in Clarity Classic (Admin page), set 'Decimal Places' to zero (0).
2. Tick the checkbox 'Allow Entry Of Line Item Totals'
3. Create Monthly Time Reporting Periods
4. Create a Project and Allocate a labor resource to it in Modern UX. Assign the resource to a Task.
5. In Modern UX Timesheet page, enter time for the labor resource by entering hours in the Total column. For example enter 51 hours in the month of March    2025.


Expected: The 51 hours entered mains intact and is spread over the days of the month of March 2025
Actual: The hours entered changes to 44 hours and the value is spread over the month of March 2025

Resolution

This has been classified 'working as designed'
In the timesheet entry page, the 'Totals' column is always the sum of the individual values added for the days.
When a user enters a value in the 'Totals' then it will be peanut butter spread over the working days.

If a user enters whole numbers in daily cells then the decimal rounding won't come into play. Otherwise peanut butter spread of total will always have the possibility of slight mismatch.
