Configuring service and leave hours

After your organization’s measurement groups and periods have been defined, the next step is to define the types of recorded time that count toward service and leave time.

  1. Select Maintenance > Optional Modules > Affordable Care Act > Service Hour Definitions.
  2. Click Create New Entry.
    Time Code
    Select the time code that you want to include in your ACA calculations.
    Hour Type
    Optionally, select an hour type:
    • If all occurrences of the time code should be included in your ACA calculations regardless of the associated hour type, leave this field blank. For example, in most cases the WRK time code should count as service time regardless of whether the time was recorded at straight time or overtime.
    • If only specific individual hour types should count, configure a separate entry for each time code/hour type combination that is eligible for inclusion. For example, an organization may want to include paid sick time (SICK/REG) and exclude unpaid sick time (SICK/UNPAID).
    Is Leave?
    Select the check box if the entry is to be considered leave time.

    If the entry is not related to leave, keep the check box cleared.

  3. Click Save.
  4. Repeat the previous steps for each of the distinct time identifiers to be included in your ACA calculations.
