    Events Contributing to Lost Time

    1. If a scheduled event is going to contribute to the lost time, select an event in the Scheduled Event drop-down list.
    2. In the Events Contributing to Lost Time drop-down list, select an event. The actual name of the event appears, not the display name.
    3. To add another row in the Events Contributing to Lost Time table, click the Add Row button and enter data in the row that is added.
    4. Repeat steps a and b to add more events to the lost time event.

    Calculate Lost Time as deference between Scheduled and Worked Time

    1. In the Scheduled Event drop-down list, select a scheduled day or event.
    2. In the Worked Event drop-down list, select a worked day or event.
    3. Clear the Worked time cannot exceed scheduled time check box to allow employees worked time to exceed their scheduled time.

      Example: if employees are scheduled to work 8 hours, and they work 10 hours, the system counts 8 hours if you select this check box. If you clear this check box, their work hours are counted as 10.

  10. Click Save.
