Non-Home Department Rule

With a Non-Home Department Rule enabled, during weeks where an employee worked at a different (non-home) department, Dayforce allocates overtime hours to the non-home department first, regardless of which department they were working in when their hours crossed the overtime threshold.

For example, an employee worked two hours of overtime during a week where they worked four shifts in their home department, as well as a midweek shift in a non-home department. Without dynamic reallocation, Dayforce charges the two hours of overtime to whichever shift the employee was working at when their hours crossed the overtime threshold.

With dynamic reallocation, Dayforce charges the two hours of overtime to the non-home department, even though the employee was working in their home department when their hours crossed the overtime threshold.

Settings for the rule

Setting	Definition
Reallocate to premiums	Select this checkbox to configure the rule so that it reallocates the selected pay categories to premiums. Note: In cases where the Non-Home Department Rule is being used in conjunction with a pay rule (for example, the Weekly Overtime Rule) that has the Premiums contribute to overtime setting enabled, the Reallocate to premiums setting in the Non-Home Department Rule should also be enabled.
Pay Codes eligible	Select the pay codes to which Dayforce should reallocate pay details. For example, to configure the rule so that it only reallocates pay details to the Work and Training pay codes, select Work and Training. Note: Leaving the Pay Codes eligible setting blank means any pay code is eligible, as long as it isn't listed in the Pay Codes not eligible setting. At least one of the two settings should have values selected.
Pay Codes not eligible	Select the pay codes to which Dayforce shouldn’t reallocate pay details. For example, to configure the rule so that it doesn't reallocate pay details to the Sick pay code, select Sick. Note: Leaving the Pay Codes not eligible setting blank means any pay code is eligible, as long as it's listed in the Pay Codes eligible setting. At least one of the two settings should have values selected.
