Policies


Policies are sets of rules governing the behavior of employee timesheets, leave accrual and more. You can create any number of policies and assign different policies to different employees. For instance, you might have one policy for exempt employees titled "Exempt Policy", and another policy for hourly employees named "Hourly Policy", each with different rule settings. Each employee must have a policy, which is specified in the Employee Details page.


Policies are composed of several sets of related rules. This includes Time Entry Rules, Balance and Accrual Rules, Over Time Rules and Flex Time Rules. Policies have the following properties:
