Time evaluation and pay calculation are new modules to automatically determine overtime from timesheets and overtime “rules” for your employees or sub-sections of employees (based on their work-schedules) and to automatically calculate and feed gross pay to payroll system based on the compensation elements maintained in the employee compensation tab. More specific features of our time evaluation module include:

• The introduction of a new property on the employee work-schedule tab called Time Capture Method which indicates if the employee is recording total time or just overtime and time-off. In the case of recording overtime and time-off only attendance records are generated for pay calculation purposes based on the standard work-schedule hours
• Calculation of overtime based on time in excess of a minimum daily or weekly number of hours (weekly being based on the actual timesheet period) up to a maximum. Multiple overtime types with different pay rates or pay ratios can be setup for different degrees of overtime as well as separately for holiday or weekend work. Overtime is automatically saved as attendance and viewable/editable in the Time & Attendance report
• Calculation of overtime and holidays based on work-shifts with specific start/stop times. When work-shifts are set-up holidays for overtime purposes are days with no work-shift
• Consideration of time off in calculating overtime so that you can for example include time-off when calculating basic overtime for all time over 40hrs/week (including absence) and exclude time-off when calculating premium rate overtime for days in excess of 8hrs/day (excluding absence).

Enhancements to timesheets to allow manual input of start and stop times in HH:MM format (as opposed to selecting from a list) and to not check timesheet hours vs. work-schedule hours if the time capture method for that employee is set-up to record overtime and time-off only.

At the same time we enhanced our details or time entry list input mode to remember and default the same mode (overview vs. list entry/details) and whether the list entry was for a single day vs. the whole timesheet period. We also support column personalization and admin. users saving/sharing table layouts with other users for the timesheet overview, details and list entry tables
