Q&A - How to Include Vacation, Holiday or Other Optional Categories into the Overtime Calculations Question ID 75 Category Training   FAQ's Date Created 8/26/2006 10:55:42 AM Date Updated 10/17/2013 8:02:28 AM What do we need to do to include vacation and holiday into the overtime calculations? Answer This can be done by going to the Accountant Menu > Custom Processing / Rounding Rules > OT CATEGORIES (PROMOTE TO OT) screen. From there you will need to do the below: 1. Add Vacation, Holiday or any other optional category under the "Pay Category (Required)" section. 2. Under the "Pay Category when promoted to Overtime (optional)" enter in "Overtime" (no quotes) to the left of your optional category. Then press "Save" at the bottom of the page to save your settings. Note: The "Pay Category when promoted to Overtime (optional)" section also allows you to create a separate overtime promotion category for each individual item. For example you can promote "Vacation" to "Vacation Overtime" instead of the default "Overtime". Note: This is only available to someone with Accountant level access (Resellers). Note: You can also under the Pay Category when promoted to Doubletime (optional) heading promote categories to "Doubletime" or a distinct double time category like "Vacation Doubletime". Note: If you promote an optional category to the defaut "Overtime" category the system will always try to promote "Regular" hours. If there are no instances of Regular hours that should calculate to overtime may go missing. TO combat this ensure to promote your optional category to a different overtime category (other than Overtime). For example promote "Vacation" to "Vacation OT".
