Hourly input can be used with batch controls (hash totals). If the entered amounts in the batch do not agree to the hash totals then a warning will display but will still allow the posting of the amount to the employee's payslips.

Hourly input has been designed to process batches of time sheets and clock cards. The time sheets can be entered in summary or in detail. Allocate hours worked to different cost centres. The posted entries are consolidated on the payslip to give the total per Transaction Code.

Note: units may also be processed if the Transaction Code has been setup using the Mileage category.

If the batch details do not agree with the batch control figures entered then a message displays showing the differences.
