O-6-404 Entry of Office Unfilled Time for Salaried Non-Exempt Employees
👤 Role
Manager
⚠️ Must be logged in under the ‘Manager’ role in Dayforce
🎯 Purpose
If a salaried non-exempt employee has not met their expected weekly hours due to the office not filling their hours, their manager must enter a pay adjustment in Dayforce as instructed in this process so that the employee is paid their expected weekly total.
NOTE
This differs from a case in which the employee does not meet their expected hours due to the employee’s unavailability. In such a case the employee must submit a TAFW request using the employee’s paid accruals for consideration by their manager.
🔄 Process
-
After confirming that the office did not fill the employee’s expected weekly hours (vs. the employee being unavailable to work), view “Timesheets” while logged in as a manager.
Employees’ timesheets listed will default to your own team, except for Area Managers, for whom employee timesheets will default to include all branch employees.
A field showing total worked hours is visible in a column on the right side of the screen in timesheets.
EXAMPLE OF FIELD SHOWING TOTAL WORKED HOURS
-
Calculate the remaining amount the employee needs to be paid for a week via a time adjustment by subtracting the total hours worked from the employee’s weekly expected hours.
EXAMPLE
For a week in which the employee had worked 38.75 hours (as in the screenshot in step 1) and the worker’s weekly expected hours was 40 hours, the calculation would be:
40 hours - 38.7500 hours = 1.25 hours
In this example, 1.25 hours would need to be entered via a pay adjustment.
-
To pay the employee for the remaining hours, select the Saturday of the week on the employee’s timesheet and select the arrow beside the icon shown.
- Choose “Add New Pay Adjustments” from the dropdown. A pop-up will open:
- Choose one of the following Pay Adjustment types, according to whether the employee is expected to work 32 hours or 40 hours weekly:
- Office Unfilled 32Hr
- Office Unfilled 40Hr
- Enter the calculated remaining number of hours the employee needs to be paid for that week
-
Click “OK”.
- Choose one of the following Pay Adjustment types, according to whether the employee is expected to work 32 hours or 40 hours weekly:
-
Select the pay adjustment on the timesheet and select “Authorize” to complete manager authorization of the time adjustment.
-
Click “Save” to save the pay adjustment entry.
-
Within the Pay pane, the “Office Unfilled” Pay Adjustment amounts will appear under the “REG” column, demonstrating that the manager entry of office unfilled hours has been successfully completed.
