!!Basic Configurations of a Time Rule 
*[Frequency|FREQUENCY]
**Describes how and when the time rule is used by the system
**Existing frequencies are:
***Never - used by the system or other time rules
****Used to default in values into a time sheet when the time sheet is generated
***Every - called by the time rule engine after changes are saved to a time sheet
****Entry	
****Shift
****Day
****Week
****Period

*[Band|QUALIFYING_BAND]
**Used as a threshold, for example used to hold a minimum number of hours before the employee qualifies for overtime. 

*[Value|TIME_RULE_VALUE]
**May be used as a variable or fixed amount 
**The context in which this column is used may change depending on the time rule type
***For example, for the time rule Daily Top Up, the column name for Value changes to Max Top Up Hrs since it holds the number of hours to top up to. The time rule, OT Consecutive, uses the Value to hold the number of consecutive days worked. 

*[Day Of Week |DAY_OF_WEEK]
**Allows for filtering of Daily and Never time rules 
**Allows for definition of first day of week for weekly time rules

*[From|FROM_CLOCK_TIME] /[To|TO_CLOCK_TIME] times 
**Allows for filtering of Daily and Never time rules

*[Time Code|TIME_CODE]/[Premium |PREMIUM_CODE]
**Most time rules use these to put the qualifying time into them
**Some time rules use them as a filter

*[Action|TIME_RULE_ACTION]
**Tells the Time Rule Engine how to apply to the time rule
***Add or Replace

*[Targeted Time Code Sets |DTCS_ID_TARGET]
**Determines what types of time (set of time codes) should qualify for the rule
**Replaces the use of the toggles for the time codes listed on the Time Code tab in [IDWR]

*[Disabled |DISABLE_RULE]
**Can be used to help debug time rules

*[Trace|TRACE_LEVEL]
**Controls the level of messaging that the server logs in the OC4J default log file
**6-Internal Level is more than enough
**[IMST] server trace might also need to be switched on for added tracing

*Banding Time Rules
**Rules of the same type can be combined to complement one another
**Must share the same targeted/apply to time code set, start/end times and day of the week
**Only rules that use the band as a threshold can support this
**Most commonly used for [OT DAILY|TR_OT_DAILY] and [OT WEEKLY|TR_OT_WEEKLY]
**For example: [OT DAILY|TR_OT_DAILY] is banded twice; first band is for 8 hours where the employee would receive OT 1.5 for hours worked after 8 hr reg time, the second band is for 12 hours where the employee would receive OT 2.0 for hours worked after 12 hrs reg time. 

!!Advanced Configurations of a Time Rule
The following list of optional configurations allows the administrator to make a time rule more powerful and advanced. 
*Apply Time Code Sets
**Usually a subset of the Targeted Time Code Set
**Most commonly used in Daily or Weekly time rules
**For example: Vacation time may contribute as hours towards OT WEEKLY but may not be paid out as Overtime. The OT WEEKLY would 'target' the vacation hours in the Target Time Code Set, but would exclude the vacation time code from its Apply Time Code Set
*Can Be Waived
**Allows the user to flag that a time rule should not be applied
**Allows the user to turn on a currently disable time rule
*Time Rule Sequence
**Used when the default ordering is not getting the desired results
**Used to change the order of time rules within the same frequency
**Most common when layering the same time code types
*Specifying the Cycle
**Standard cycle is every Entry > Shift  > Day > Week > Period
**The default cycle is 5
**May be used to change the order of time rules of different frequencies.
***For example, override the cycle of OT Weekly to be 1 so that it will come before OT Daily
