Labor definitions can be set for any single entity.  When creating a new labor definition, initially all of the definitions set in default labor definitions will be populated.  To customize the labor definitions, select the entity name and make any changes to the default labor definitions that are pulled in.

 

Adding a Labor Definition

1.Click the Add link.

2.Identify the entity for which you are defining labor definitions from the drop-down.

3.Edit or populate fields accordingly.  Please see the default labor definition section for a list of available fields.

4.Click the Save button.

 

Populating Labor Definition Fields

When initially populating an entity specific labor definitions, the definitions currently setup in default labor definitions will be the default.

 

Labor Definitions

Example: The default labor definition for the Minimum Wage field is $7.25.

To change the minimum wage for the North Austin Bakery:

1.Check the box next to the minimum wage field.  The grayed out box will turn white and will then allow you to change the field.

2.Enter the minimum wage for the North Austin Bakery entity.

3.Click the Save button.

Settings

Note that each field in this section has two check boxes.  The check box on the left indicates that the default labor definition should be overridden with what is set here, in the labor definitions screen.  If the check box on the left is checked, then the setting for the field will be determined by the state of the check box on the right.

Example: The default labor definition for the Automatically Generate Employee Rest Periods field is checked.  Therefore, whenever a user makes or edits a schedule, the rest periods will automatically generate.  This shows through on the Labor Definitions screen as a grayed out check in the right check box.
