Enable settings for full-time and part-time schedules

A full-time employment is usually considered normal working hours. Full time normally means eight hours of paid work per week day (40 hours per week). The extent of a full-time employment is regulated by law or agreement. An employee who works less than full time for an employer, works part time.

All part-time schedules should be based on a full-time schedule. This is important because the full-time schedule is used to calculate employment rate, overtime for part-time employees, overtime, seasonal working hours, schedule during holidays, and more.

Do the following if you want to assign one part-time schedule to a full-time schedule at a time:

1. Select Settings - Payroll settings.
2. Select the Work schedules tab.

3. Select part-time schedule from the list.

4. Select a full-time schedule with scheduled working hours under Based on full-time schedule for each part-time schedule.

Part-time schedules with rolling weeks

A part-time schedule with rolling weeks must be based on a full-time schedule which either contains one week or the same amount of rolling weeks as the part-time schedule.

If you have a part-time schedule with several rolling weeks, and there is no full-time schedule where the start time and/or end time for either of the weeks lie within the start and end times of the part-time schedule, you must create a new full-time schedule where the start and end times lie within those of the part-time schedule.
