Setting combination pay code options
This section applies to you only if your installation is standalone, meaning that you selected Standalone for the System to Integrate field.
You can turn on combination pay codes in e-timecard Initialization. Later, you must go to each org9 that uses combination pay codes and set the maximum pay codes to more than one; you can override this setting for an employee type. You can also select from options for combination pay code entry on the Parameter Setup screen > Time Cards tab.
Read a detailed explanation of combination pay codes.
Note: If you select Implement Combination Pay Codes as shown below, then the label for the pay code validation under the main Initialization tab changes to Primary Pay Code. This makes it clear that you set the primary pay code validation there, and you set the secondary pay code validations as shown below.
To set combination pay code options
On the e-timecard Initialization screen, click the Earning Codes tab.
Click the Implement Combination Pay Codes check box to allow employees to enter combination pay codes on time cards.
For each of the three levels of secondary pay codes, select Required, Optional, or None from the Required or Optional dropdown list. None means that your company doesn’t use this level.
If you set a level to Optional, then you must set the lower levels to either Optional or None. If you set a level to None, then you must set the lower levels to None.
If you choose an option other than None for the Required field, select Hard Error, Soft Error, or No Validation from the Error Type dropdown list.
You must set all the levels to the same error type, except for levels that have the Required field set to None. The example below shows a valid combination.
