Examples of Mappings for Time Device Events
You want to create mappings between PPR Mint Company supplier device events and time and labor application events. You also want to include Payroll Time Type attribute values in the mappings.
Event Mapping Scenario
You've hourly workers who use badge readers from PPR Mint Company to record when they start and stop shifts, breaks, and meals. You pay shifts and breaks at regular rates, while meals are unpaid.
Event Mapping Set
Here are the individual mappings you plan to add to a mapping set for PPR Mint Company.
| Event Mapping Name | Supplier Device Event | Application Event | Time Attribute | Default Values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PPRMint Start Shift | Start Shift | In | Payroll Time Type | Regular |
| PPRMint Stop Shift, Start Break | Start Break | Out and In | Payroll Time Type | Out: Regular In: Paid Break |
| PPRMint Stop Break, Start Shift | Stop Break | Out and In | Payroll Time Type | Out: Paid Break In: Regular |
| PPRMint Stop Shift, Start Meal | Start Meal | Out and In | Payroll Time Type | Out: Regular In: Unpaid Meal |
| PPRMint Stop Meal, Start Shift | Stop Meal | Out and In | Payroll Time Type | Out: Unpaid Meal In: Regular |
| PPRMint Stop Shift | Stop Shift | Out | Payroll Time Type | Regular |
Analysis
To make sure that there aren't any gaps when people take breaks and meals during a shift, select the Out and In application event. Although there's one application event in this instance, the Generate Time Cards from Time Collection Device import process creates two time events. The first time event is an Out event that's immediately followed by an In event. For example, in the PPRMint Stop Shift, Start Break mapping, the Out event corresponds to stopping the shift. The In event corresponds to starting the break.
Payroll elements created for use with time cards provide the default values for the Payroll Time Type time attribute.
Resulting Time Card Entries
Here are the time entries that the Generate Time Cards from Time Collection Device import process creates as someone badges in and out.
| Time Attribute Values | Wednesday Start | Wednesday End |
|---|---|---|
| Regular | 08:00 | 10:00 |
| Paid Break | 10:00 | 10:15 |
| Regular | 10:15 | 12:00 |
| Unpaid Lunch | 12:00 | 13:00 |
| Regular | 13:00 | 15:00 |
| Paid Break | 15:00 | 15:15 |
| Regular | 15:15 | 17:00 |
