Hello experts,

I have some wage codes that are of type “lost time” due to mandatory resting, shuttling and similar. These codes needs to be costed by project and is part of scheduled time. 

When we need to calculate actual worked time, these wage codes needs to be excluded. Instead of excluding specific wage codes in each calculation, I have simply setup these as absence wage codes. 

I am able to register the codes - 8 hours in project and 8 hours as absence. Scheduled time is 8 hours. However, when I try to authorize, system says that my hours do not reconcile. I have used parameter list “Reconcile Job and Attendance Hours”. 

As far as I understand from previous discussion, it is possible to use absence in project hours. Any ideas of what can be wrong?

Thank you for your help!

@liga.dambrane : When you have set-up parameters as “Reconcile Job and Attendance Hours”, system will validate as Scheduled Hours = Project (Normal) Hours + Absence Hours

I understand that you have created “Absence” Report code and reported 8 hours against this report code in project, this will be displayed as normal 8 hours.  Additionally, you have added 8 hours against absence wage code, so system is giving valid error message because total reporting hours are 16.

There is no need to report absence wage code here. If you need for some purpose in ‘Employee Results’, use ‘Information’ type wage code.

Thanks

 


I have connected job cost parameter used in project hours to absence wage code rather than normal time wage code. In such way, system should consider it only once.
