Minimum Consecutive Hours Off Per Week Rule Example 2

Employees must have 48 consecutive hours off work per week. Time away requested under the Provisionally Sick pay code counts as work, and doesn’t count toward the minimum consecutive hours threshold.

To configure the rule for this example:

1. In the Min Threshold field, enter 48.
2. In the Min Severity drop-down list, click Error.
3. Select the TAFW contributes to rest time checkbox.
4. In the Exclude TAFW pay codes setting, select a pay code. In this example, the Provisionally Sick pay code is selected.
5. Click Save.

Say that you schedule an employee to work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday from 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM. Then, you add an all day time away request on Friday under the Provisionally Sick pay code. The Provisionally Sick pay code counts as work, so this time away violates the Minimum Consecutive Hours Off Per Week Rule because the employee doesn’t receive a minimum of 48 consecutive hours off. Dayforce flags the time away with an error icon and shows an error message in the Problems panel in Schedules.
