  4. Specify the employee ID, work assignment, pay code, and date range.
    • The primary work assignment is the default, but you can specify a different work assignment.
    • The pay code must be a Calculation type of Do Not Calculate.
    • All employee time records are created using the specified values.

    Batch Number
    When an automatic batch number is enabled for the organization, you can leave this field blank. Otherwise, you must specify a batch number.
