This article explains how Default Assignment functions with the various time capture methods and how to designate an Assignment as the Default for an employee.

If an Assignment is designated as the employee's Default Assignment, it will be pre-selected in the Assignments dropdown. If there is no Default Assignment, the Assignment associated with the most recent time pair will be pre-selected in the Assignments dropdown.
