!!!Hitch
!!Time Rule Overview
This is a helper time rule that determines the start of the week, and the hitch start date for the [OT Hitch Week|TR_OT_HITCH_WEEK] and the [OT Consc No Sch|TR_OT_CONSC_NO_SCH].   Organizations could use [OT Workweek|TR_OT_WORKWEEK] and [WK Start Off Day|TR_WK_START_OFF_DAY] time rules instead of [Hitch|TR_HITCH] and [OT Hitch Week|TR_OT_HITCH_WEEK] time rules, as they behave in similar manners. 

!!Requirements / Features
This rule should not be used alone.  Apply Time Code Sets are required and should include any time codes that can be applied during the hitch, except those that are used for non-scheduled days worked. Examples of time codes that should be included:***Regular
***OT
***Leave
***Leave OT
***Holiday work
***OT consecutive days
***OT weekly
***OT hitch week
***Others to be determined

*Time Rule Type Code:  HITCH

!!Additional Info 
[Frequency|FREQUENCY]
*predefined as ‘Never’
*[Apply Time Code Sets|DTCS_ID_APPLY] required
**When the Time Code set is defined in the [Apply Time Code Sets|DTCS_ID_APPLY] field, please keep in mind that the time rule may look back for days from the previous pay where all the time rules were already applied.
**How it works: 
***This time rule looks back the number of days that have passed by calling either the [OT Hitch Week|TR_OT_HITCH_WEEK] or [OT Consc No Sch|TR_OT_CONSC_NO_SCH] time rules.  It tries to find the minimum number of days before Hitch passed the same time rule.
***If during its search, the time rule finds "defined" work days (time codes in the Apply Time Code Set), then the counting of days before the hitch is reset to 0.
***If it could not find at least a minimum number of days before Hitch (passed by calling Time Rule) it will not be able to find the start of the week

!!Implementation
The time rule should be set up in [IDWR] as shown below. See [Time Rule Improvements|TIME_RULE_IMPROVEMENTS] for additional information regarding [IDWR].
