PPC_ID_TIME is a 10 digit numerical field used to store the pay component code that will store the “time” result of the premium calculation. Users may wish to use this field if time is stored separately as a result of premium transactions.

An employee has worked 8 hours in one night shift. A transaction for the 8 regular hours has been entered, and a night shift premium will be applied. If the company requires that the 8 hours of premium time be recorded in a separate area for tracking reasons, a pay component may be entered in this field.

Result: 8 hours regular time, 8 hours premium time

If the company requires only that 8 hours of regular time be recorded (relying on the earnings pay components to track the premium paid), leave the time pay component blank.

Result: 8 hours regular time.
