This is the first of two screens used to configure codes that can be used in the CU*BASE Employee Time Card Processing system to track an employee's time. These codes allow you to break out an employee's hours using up to 10 different categories.

  • Category 01 and 02 are used by the Time Card Entry screen to validate allocated hours against actual calculated worked time. Therefore, these two categories must represent working time and are typically designated as Regular and Overtime.

  • Categories 03 through 10 can be used to log any non-working time such as vacations, personal time, sick time, etc. The Time Card Entry screen does not compare the calculated working hours against the time entered into these categories. This is so that you can enter, for example, an employee's vacation hours without having to enter “fake” start and end times for those days.

Because the Time Card Entry screen allows an employee to enter lunch start and end times day, and automatically deducts this time from the time worked calculation, it is NOT recommended that a category be used for lunch hours.

Enter a two-digit code (use 01 to 10 only) and use Enter to proceed to the second screen.
