    Article summary

    The Reporting Time Pay tab displays Rule Groups for Reporting Time Pay Rules. Here, Users can create, view, and edit these Rule Groups.

    Reporting Time Pay Rules will compare an Employee’s actual hours to their scheduled hours. If the Employee’s actual hours do not meet the threshold of minimum hours or percentage of scheduled hours set in the Rule, Reporting Time Pay earnings will be added.

    Reporting Time Pay earnings will be included in Labor $ and Labor % amounts for Labor Trends, OT Performance, and the Scheduled vs Actual Report. Reporting Time Pay earnings can be viewed on the Daily Sales Summary when reviewing Labor.
