Additional hour columns

Additional hour columns can be added to the Daily, Weekly and Monthly tabs of the LFSO Schedule screen. These columns display the number of hours scheduled to each employee that are included in the specified time codes or hour types. The time period can be configured for each column to display hours over a longer period than the displayed schedule period.

This feature can be used to assist schedulers by displaying each employee's scheduled time based on criteria such as work time, overtime, or time off. For example, a column can be added that displays the number of overtime hours scheduled during the entire month, even though only one week is included in the displayed schedule period. Adjustments from pay rules, such as overtime premium adjustments, can be reflected in the displayed hour totals, or can be excluded. It is important to note that the displayed hours may differ from actual hours if employees record clocks outside of the exact times of their shift.

Columns may separate hours in unpublished schedules from hours in published schedules. When these values are separated, the published hours and unpublished hours are separated by a slash, with the published hours displayed first and the unpublished hours displayed second. When the displayed schedule period overlaps two time periods, the hours for the second time period are displayed in square brackets [ ].

Config mode can be used to display or hide all additional columns to users based on security group membership. The names of the columns can be localized by activating table localization for the SCH_COLUMN_DEF table.
