Set Up Time Categories

The Time Categories editor lists job / pay code categories that your staff can select to indicate how they spent their working hours, and to calculate vacation and sick pay hours for your HR Manager.

How to Get Here

Home ribbon bar > Editors > General > Time Categories. (You can also search for the editor you want to work with.)

Click Editors from the Tools section of the Home ribbon bar.

Select General in the list at the left and choose the Time Categories option.

Setup

Choose Record to Work With - Your list of existing records appears at the left. Click the record to work with. The details for that record appear at the right.
Display active / inactive records - You can choose whether to include inactive records in your list by enabling / disabling the Show Inactive option.

Create new description - Click New. Then select the new record description at the bottom of the list and enter your text.

Identify non-work categories - Enable the Vacation or Sick Time options to indicate non-working hours that the employee is paid for. If you use the HR Manager, time stamps assigned to this category will deduct time accrued from employee records, and are color-coded in your Attendance Tracker. (See "Manage Employee Vacation / Paid Time Off" for details about tracking vacation and well-pay hours for your employees.)
Set as default - Enable the Default option of your Timeclock Categories editor to specify which category should be initially selected when employees clock in. Only one category can be set as the default at any one time.
Toggle inactive flag- Records you flag as Inactive are not available for general use. However, they remain in effect for reporting and other data collection needs.
