    - Adjustment Rules
      Adjustment Rules can be used to adjust wages or pay bonuses based on time entered in the timecard.
    - Percent Allocation Rules
      Percent Allocation rules allocate employee time across multiple labor categories, based on a selection criterion (labor category, cost center, or pay code). The rules are based on a pre-defined percentage distribution.
    - Cascading Profiles
      Cascading profiles contain cascading policies, which define the paycodes used to trigger cascading accrual takings.

    - Holiday Profiles
      Holiday Profiles allow you to assign holidays, holiday credit rules, and zone rules to employees outside of pay rules and work rules.
    - Pay Rules
      Pay rules control how time and attendance information is processed for each employee.
    - Holiday Credit Rules
      Holiday credit rules specify the requirements for holiday credits and how holiday credits are calculated.
    - Holidays
      The Holidays page enables you to create a list of all the holidays used within your organization without regard to location, employees, and so forth.
    - Work Rules
      Work rules are combinations of work rule building blocks that apply specific pay rules to shifts. These rules determine how employee hours accrue. For details about the work rule building blocks, see Configure Work Rule building blocks.
    - Pay Rule Building Blocks
      Pay rule building blocks are constant within payroll policies; they are not shift-dependent. Pay rule building blocks include:
    - Holiday Credit Rules Building Blocks
      The Holiday Credit Rules Building Blocks are used for defining and configuring holidays.
    - Work Rule Building Blocks
      Work rule building blocks are sets of parameters that control time and attendance functions. A building block can be used in multiple work rules. For example, if different groups of employees share the same Punch Round rule, use the round rule in the work rule assigned to each group.
    - Paycodes
      Paycodes organize time or money that employees earn, and identify spans of time for payroll purposes.

Pay Policies

Pay policies are sets of rules that govern how employee hours are interpreted, including rounding of punches, overtime accrual, and holiday credit earnings, as well as the processing of time and attendance information through components like pay codes and work rules.

Pay policies enable you to create rules that interpret employee hours, such as:

How punches round
When employees accrue overtime
When employees earn holiday credits

Pay policies include many components, including pay codes, work rule building blocks, and pay rules. Pay rules control how time and attendance information is processed for each employee.
