Administrator's Overview

 

 

Besides the installation and training, there are three key areas that a TimeIPS System Administrator MUST be informed about and comfortable with because these three areas MUST be configured correctly for your TimeIPS system to perform as efficiently as possible. These three areas are Overtime Policies, Workweek Groups, and Payroll Types. We will cover these three areas first.

 

Overtime Policies - Overtime Policies define how overtime is calculated for workweeks. Once you have reconciled your company policies with your local, state and federal regulations, you can then begin to set up your Overtime Policies within the TimeIPS system. For more instruction on how overtime policies work and the configuration of overtime policies within the TimeIPS system, please see the documentation below.
Workweek Groups - Workweek Groups allow administrators to manage sets of employees who follow the same workweek schedule and have their overtime calculation done in the same way.
Payroll Types - Payroll Types group employees with the same payroll period. Payroll runs once for each payroll period for each Type. Time Reports and Special Reports may be viewed by Payroll Type.




Once you have successfully and correctly configured the three main settings above, you can configure the other areas of the TimeIPS system as needed:
