Entering your VMS hours for Chapter Meetings

To improve consistency in entering VMS hours for Chapter Meetings and to reduce the number of entries rejected for errors, here are guidelines and examples of VMS time writing for a chapter meeting.
 
To provide consistency, the standard entries shall be 1 hour for AT for the Monthly Speaker and 30 minutes Volunteer Time for the Chapter Business Discussion for each meeting.  Some meetings are more, some are less but over the course of a year it all balances out.  
 
Note that if you attend the meeting in person, you may increase the Volunteer Time for the Chapter Business Discussion for up to 30 minutes of your travel time.  If you joined the meeting remotely, obviously, travel time is zero.  
 
Please continue to use these examples for future meetings, changing the AT description of course.
