!!!BALANCE PAY TRANSACTIONS

The Balance Pay Transactions (IPTRB) screen is used to balance pay transactions by Batch, By Week or By Day.

This function is found either through the command line or by using the Balance Batch button in [IPTR].

IPTRB gives you the ability to review the batch for total hours. This information includes a total for all hours in the batch. IPTRB can be used for approving the batch as well as the [IPTR] screen.

The IPTRB form may be edited to provide totals by specific [time code sets|TIME CODE SETS] which will aide in the balancing of the batch. The page [How to edit IPTRB|HOW TO EDIT IPTRB] describes in detail how this can be done.
