WARNING: 10hr billing max/day. Scenario: One of my students, who is in the e-shars system, is going to 5th grade camp overnight for 3 days-March 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. I am sending an educational assistant with the student. How do I enter this information into e-shars next week for that student?A: Example: Camp day starts @ 8:00 and ends @ ends @ 7:00, you will only bill up to 6:00 due to the 10hr max billing cap.
