The Scheduled Hours bucket will be zero for everyone. The program will be populating the Actual Hours Worked/Days Worked.
Estimated Hours are initially sent since TRS requires hours to be sent for th entire month. Payrolls are processed before the month is over, making it necessary to send Estimated Hours. Estimated hours are done differently depending on whether the employee is Budgeted or Wage. Budgeted Employees will have the number of working days in the month multiplied by 8. Wage employees will use the hours/days worked that are attained from Pay History.
A true up is done the following month to report the actual hours. An RP25 is created that will send the difference between the Estimated and the Actual Hours Worked. Currently the RP25 for days worked is very general, the hours worked should be used to determine the days worked and modified in the TRS TEAM Portal.
Demographic Reporting – The ED40 has a field named Non-Standard Work Week. We currently default everyone to ‘N’ for this field.
