Concept: Shift Crossing Weeks with Eligibility Change

Concept: Shift Crossing Weeks with Eligibility Change

Workday supports shifts crossing weeks by applying the correct calculations based on the shift date of the prior week or the calculated date of the current week.
The table below illustrates the calculation processing based on the calculated eligibility setup that you configure with the
Run Time Calculation Eligibility Day by Day
tenant-level setting on the
Edit Tenant Setup - HCM
task.
Run Time Calculation Eligibility Day by Day
Calculation Processing
Not selected
The time calculation eligibility continues to be resolved as of the end date of the week. If the effective date of a job change falls in the middle of the week, time calculations that haven’t run yet are still derived from the worker's end date of the week.
Selected
Time calculation eligibility is evaluated day by day.
Example: Ben’s work schedule calendar has
Sunday
as the start day of week, a midnight day breaker, and
Begin of Shift
shift option on his time entry template. He works a shift that starts on Saturday, 2024-09-14, at 9:00 PM, and ends on Sunday, 2024-09-15, at 6:00 AM.
For the week of 2024-09-08 to 2024-09-14, he is eligible for a Daily Overtime Calculation > 8 Hours, based on the shift date. He changes time calculation group eligibility on 2024-09-15 and becomes eligible for a shift differential calculation from 3:00 AM - 7:00 AM. His time block has a shift date of 2024-09-14 and a calculated date of 2024-09-15. The portion of the time block on 2024-09-15 is tagged with 1 hour of Overtime, respecting the shift date, and 3 hours of Night Premium based on the change in eligibility.
