Exceptions

The Exceptions card opens a listing of the payroll exceptions for this employee, generated during the calculations processing.

Action Buttons

The following Action buttons are available in the Exceptions screen:

Handle Selected

The Handle Selected button allows the user to indicate any or all of the situations that generated an exception message handled (viewed and/or an action taken).

Unhandle Selected

The Unhandle Selected button allows the user to remove the Handled check mark which indicated the selected exceptions were previously handled.

  1. Check the selection box to the left of each record to be updated.

  2. Click on the Unhandle Selected button at the bottom of the screen.

  3. The check mark now is removed from the right of the exception icon, indicating that the exception is no longer marked as Handled.

The following icons may be displayed when viewing the exceptions records:

Critical Exception

Indicates a serious issue with an employee time card. The time card cannot be approved until this exception has been resolved. An example of a critical exception is "An Odd Clocking was detected".

Warning Exception

Indicates a moderate issue in an employee time card. The time card can still be approved. An example of a warning exception is "Hours reported in excess of Approved Hours in the pay period."

Informational Exception

Indicates a relatively minor issue in an employee time card. The time card can still be approved if this exception is not resolved. An example of an informational exception would be if an employee clocked in at an unauthorized badge reader.

Pending Exception

Adjustment

Calendar

Indicates an employee calendar entry.

Clocking

Indicates an employee clocking entry.
