- Apply the original rate when duplicating timesheets settings. This is related to the timesheets that change the original rate when added to the invoice because of the Budget feature. If later on you want to copy the timecards that were already invoiced and their rate was adapted to the budget, your copy of the timecard would have the adjusted rate.  For example: create timesheet with rate 100 eur → add timesheet to invoice and change rate to 50 eur → approve invoice → create duplication → result:
    • "Apply original rate when duplicating timesheets "enabled → rate = 100eur

    • "Apply original rate when duplicating timesheets "disabled → rate = 50eur

To enable the feature, go to account settings (1), select activities (2), select general (3) and mark use original rate for duplication (4). Press save after enabling or disabling the feature. enable dublicate rate
