Note that this value must be filled in exactly according to the value in Tempo, therefore including the distinction between upper and lower case letters. Without following this rule, the system will not be able to download your worklogs correctly. When creating new accounts in Tempo, we recommend not to use @, & and # characters for Account Name and Account Key fields, which are supported by our side, but due to Jira's features it can take more time to search and download worklogs. |

In order to maintain data consistency between the two systems, the single source of truth rule must be followed. In practice, this means that once the worklogs are downloaded to the appropriate project log in Business Central, the information that comes from Tempo ( resource number, quantity of hours worked, etc.) should no longer change. The only value that can be safely changed is the line description field, or possibly the line discount or dimensions. If you need to make any changes to a given worklog, the best practice is to delete the line in Business Central, make the modification in Tempo, and then manually download the worklog back into Business Central. If you want to edit a worklog in the project journal before it is posted, just delete the corresponding line, make the change on the Tempo side and manually download the updated line using the Load Tempo Worklogs action. You can learn more about manual downloading here. If you need to edit a worklog that has already been posted, you need to reverse the corresponding entry in the project ledger entries, post the line with the opposite value created in the project journal, and then again make the change on the Tempo side and manually download the updated line using the Load Tempo Worklogs action. More information about reversing project entries can be found here. |
