Overtime job codes are used by employees who must register their deviations (their overtime) in addition to normal working hours.

Overtime job codes update the Hour bank or are paid out via payroll depending on the setup. Overtime job codes can have factor earning (1: X).

Overtime job codes can be used by hourly paid staff and fixed paid staff.

Overtime job codes can be used together with:

  • Time registration - without hour bank

  • Time registration - with hour bank
