Mapping Values Overview

When you add a rule to the sidebar in HR Admin > Employee Data Mapping Rules, you must set the values that you want the rule to assign to employees. You can add one or more values to a single rule. In this example, the Full-Time Employees rule is set to assign employees a specific schedule rule policy, overtime group, and attendance policy:

Full-Time Employees data mapping rule.

The full list of available mapping values is predefined. See Mapping Value List.

Dayforce shows a validation error to prevent you from saving a mapping rule that has more than one of the same mapping values, except for the following mapping values, which accept multiple entries:

  • Clock Devices Group
  • Pay Code Group
  • User Pay Code Group
  • Employee Property

For example, if you add two mapping values for Average Daily Hours, Dayforce shows a validation error because employees can have only one value for average daily hours in their HR record.
