ExecuTime benefits via Timesheet Entry





Description of Issue

When benefit time has been entered directly to the time card via Employee Actions > Timesheet Entry; a Time Off Request is created and the time automatically displays as approved. 



Context
  • Time & Attendance

  • Accruals / Benefits

  • Timesheet Entry



Cause

Benefit code has been configured to allow Edit on Timesheet. When this flag is enabled with a check mark, that means time enter against that code can added directly to the time card via Employee Actions > Timesheet Entry without prior approval. Since the code is flags as a Benefit based on Non-Accrued being populated in the benefit field of the code, the application will create a request for tracking purposes with a status of approved. Same is true when a benefit is added to a users time card via Supervisor Actions > Employee Time Maintenance > Add New Time Entry



Resolution

If approval of Benefit time is required prior to the time populating to the time card, the configuration of benefit codes would need to be updated so that Edit on Timesheet is not checked on the benefit code.

  1. Navigate to System Admin > Master File Management  > Pay Codes.

  2. Select the pencil icon to edit the benefit pay code.

  3. Remove check mark setting on Edit on Timesheet.

  4. Click Save.



Additional Information

 Enable Show on Time Off Request with a check mark so that users that qualify for this benefit will have access to it when selecting Employee Actions > Time Off Requests
