Define Time Worked for Dynamic Rates (NZ)

Overview

The Config > Leave > Definition of Time Worked report is used to manage the pay items in a portal that are considered as ‘Time Worked’.

Items that have been selected will be included in Dynamic Rate calculations that contain an Actual Time Worked value: 

• Average Weekly Pay (AWP); 
• Ordinary Weekly Pay (OWP); and,
• Average Daily Pay (ADP).

Please note that the Definition of Time Worked is reported separately to the accrual pay items that you have set in your leave categories, as the items included may not be the same. 

Define a Pay Item as Time Worked

To define a pay item as Time Worked, you will need to ensure that the checkbox next to the pay item name is ticked. Deselected items will not be included in the Time Worked calculation.

Time Worked in Process Payroll

If changes are made to your Definition of Time Worked settings, it’s important to note that they will only apply to new pays that are generated in Process Payroll.

If you have existing pays that are already generated, any settings that you change will not be applied, even where the pay is recalculated. 

You will need to ensure that the correct pay items have been ticked prior to generating your pays to ensure that the Dynamic Rates can be calculated accurately.
