Regular Time Policies

MAIN MENU > Policy > Regular Time Policies

Regular Time Policies primarily take worked time and assign it with a specific Pay Code, which can then be included in other policies such as Overtime and Premium policies. Regular time is exclusive to itself, therefore if you have multiple regular time policies, time assigned to one regular time policy cannot also be assigned to another.

TIP: This policy must be assigned to a Policy Group before it will become active. See Setting up Policies.

See the Basic Operation section for details on viewing, adding, editing and deleting.

Regular Time Policy Tab
FIELD	DESCRIPTION
Contributing Shift Policy	Defines the shifts that are included in this policy calculation.
Pay Code	Specifies the Pay Code that resulting time is recorded as.
Pay Formula Policy	Determines how resulting time is converted to dollars. If a Pay Formula Policy is not explicitly defined then the Pay Formula Policy assigned to the above selected Pay Code is used instead.
Calculation Order	The order in which Regular Time Policies are calculated, where 1 is the first and 9999 is the last. Since a block of time is only associated with the first Regular Time policy that includes it, the order in which they are calculated is very important, especially if the same Contributing Shift Policy is used by multiple Regular Time policies. The last Regular Time policy will automatically be assigned all remaining worked time that is not already accounted for.

Differential Criteria Tab
FIELD	DESCRIPTION
Selection Type	Defines the selection criteria for each field, either "All," "Only Selected," or "All Except Selected." If you choose "Only Selected" or "All Except Selected" you should select one or more items in the boxes below.
Exclude Default	Check the box to enable this option, which sets TimeTrex to ignore the Default Branch (as defined in each employee's record). For example, if you want all employees who work outside their default branch to match this criteria, you can enable this option and set the selection type to All Branches.
Pay Code Policy	Defines which contributing pay code policy this applies to.
