1. In the punch timesheet, to choose Compensatory Time in lieu of paid Overtime put a check mark in one of the checkboxes in the "Comp Time" column on the right side of the timesheet.
   
   To assure that any overtime is calculated as comp time by the Time Administration job, it is important to put the check mark on a day within the week that actually contains reported time. Only one of the Comp Time checkboxes needs to be marked within the week you wish for Comp Time to generate in lieu of overtime.  You do not have to check the box on each day showing reported time.
   
   NOTE: If you wish to designate comp time earnings in lieu of holiday premium, the Comp Time box on the row of the holiday worked hours must be checked.
   
   
   
   
2. Comp may be designated on any row containing reported time of a work week with excess of 40 hours. (Note: To designate comp time instead of paid overtime for both weeks, Comp must be designated on one day with reported time for each work week.),
   
    
   Comp time designated for both weeks

Prior period adjustments

To make time adjustments for a previous time period, on the Timesheet Summary page select the date or period for the adjustment. Use the guidelines listed above to make the timesheet changes.
(Note: Access to prior periods is restricted by roles. Supervisors will be able to make adjustments in a pay period 17 days prior to the current period. Payroll coordinators will be able to make adjustments in a pay period 90 days prior to the current period.)

  NOTE: If time adjustments are made to a prior period, be sure to review exceptions and approve time for the prior period along with processing time for the current period.

If time has been approved and then the employee's time is changed, the adjusted time will create adjustments in payable time which must be approved.  Sometimes these adjusted payable time will be negative, it is very important that all payable time be approved.

In the examples below, two hours per day are approved. Then time on one day is changed to four hours, and time on another day is changed to one hour. After Time Admin runs, the changed times appear in payable time detail for the amounts of the change and need to be approved.
