Setting up a comp time allowance factor

When you set up comp time for your staff, you can specify a constant allowance factor, such as one hour of comp time per hour worked over expected hours, or different allowance factors based on the time of year. Use the
Based on Time of Year
 dialog to set up different allowance factors for different times of year.
To open the
Based on Time of Year
 dialog, choose Setup > Firm > Benefits tab, mark the
Activate
 checkbox in the Comp time section, select the
Based on time of year
 option, and select the button.
To set up multiple allowance factors, follow these steps.
  1. In the first row of the
    Based on Time of Year
     dialog, use the
    To Month
     and
    To Day
     fields to indicate the end of the comp time period that begins January 1st.
  2. In the
    Allowance Factor
     field, enter the allowance factor for the period. For example, staff may earn 1.5 hours for each hour worked over expected hours.
  3. If you are setting up more than two comp time periods, use the
    To Month
     and
    To Day
     fields in the second row to indicate the end of the second period, then specify an allowance factor.
  4. Repeat the step above until all periods are defined, then select
    OK
     to close the
    Based on Time of Year
     dialog.
