Wage Type + Overtime Rules Administration

Multiple wage types can be configured by administrators in Smart Construction Field--here's how.

1. From the upper right corner of the app, tap to open the Main Menu.
   
   
   
2. The Main Menu opens. Select the Admin option.
   
   
   
3. The Admin menu opens. Tap to open the Enterprise Profile Settings option.
   
   
   
4. The Enterprise Profile menu opens. Tap the Overtime Configuration option.
   
   
   
5. The Overtime Configuration dialogue opens. Tap the Wage Types & Overtime Rules button to continue.
   
6. The Wage Types dialogue opens. To add a new wage type, tap the "+" button in the lower right corner of the screen.
   
   
   
7. The Add Wage Type dialogue opens. Enter a name for the wage type--this field is mandatory. Enter a wage multiplier to indicate the effect you wish this wage type to have on a team member's standard wage. For example, a wage multiplier of 2 will multiply the standard wage by two. The wage multiplier is mandatory for creation of a new wage type. 
   
   
   
8. Beneath the Wage Multiplier field, you will see an indicator of whether or not Auto-calculate has been enabled for Overtime wages. If this says YES, these non-default wage types will be applied automatically to time entries that satisfy the criteria for the wage type. If it says NO, these non-default wage types can be applied manually by supervisors via the Time Log. This feature can be turned on or off in the Enterprise Profile settings by a system administrator.
   
   
   
9. Next, you will have the option to add business rules to the wage type by tapping the Add Hourly Business Rule section. Depending on the wage type you are setting up, this may not be necessary.
   
   
   
10. The Add Hourly Business Rule dialogue opens. Enter the number of hours over which this business rule should be applied in the Over field. Select the interval (Day, Week, or Month) at which these hours are being counted from the Per dropdown menu. The combination of these two fields establishes parameters for the application of this wage type--in the example below, once a user's time entries exceed 160 hours for a month interval (they've worked more than 160 hours in a month), the multiplier listed above will be applied. So in this case, any hours over the 160 in that month will be paid at 1.5 times their normal wage. Tap the Checkmark button to proceed, or the "X" in the upper right corner to cancel.
    
    
    
11. Multiple business rules can be applied for more complex wage types. Tap the Add Hourly Business Rule button again, then add the details for the next rule. Tap the Checkmark button to proceed. The new business rule will appear below the first. In the example below, this wage type will be applied if a user has time entries of either 160 hours per month or 10 hours per day. This means that once the threshold of 160 hours has been crossed for the month, the user's wages will be multiplied by the designated amount for this wage type. OR, if a user has worked more than 10 hours in a day, any additional hours logged for that day will be multiplied by the designated amount.
    
    Either of these business rules may be deleted by tapping the Delete icon on the right side of the entry.
12. Lastly, select any additional rules that should apply. These will be applied in addition to any business rules entered above.
    
    Holidays Only: Applies the wage type only on the Holidays established in the Enterprise settings.
    Weekend Specific: Selecting this option prompts you to choose Saturday and/or Sunday, meaning that this wage type would only apply to hours logged on that weekend day (or days).
13. Tap the Checkmark button to save and continue, or the "X" button to discard.
14. The new wage type now appears in your listing.
    
    
    
15. To edit a wage type, tap the More Options dots on the right side of that wage type listing.
    
    
16. The More Options menu opens. Select the Edit option from the dropdown. (Note that you are also able to delete wage types using this menu as long as the wage type is not in use).
    
    
    
17. Make any desired edits, including using the Active toggle to deactivate the wage type. Tap the Checkmark button to save edits.
