Overview of Eligible Jobs
An eligible job is an additional job for which the worker is eligible in addition to the worker's current job.
You can use this feature to track the additional jobs. The additional jobs can also be used to report time on the time sheet. Use the value set ORA_PER_EMPL_ELIG_JOBS when configuring the time sheet to display eligible jobs.
Relief Type
The relief type governs the job filtering and rate override options for the additional jobs. By default, when you add a new eligible job, the relief type is Derived.
-
Derived - You need to set the start date, end date and select a job that's mapped to the job family of the assignment job.
-
Manual - You can attach any job even outside the job family of the assignment job. If you add a job under this relief type then you need to enter the rate and frequency along with start date and end date. If you want to use this relief type you need to un-hide these fields- Relief Type, Manual Rate, Currency, and Frequency.
However, a point to note is that when you enter the eligible job, an element entry or time card entry isn't automatically created. You need to refer the overridden rate and frequency in your payroll fast formula to calculate the pay difference for a worker if you're using the Manual relief type.
Eligible Jobs Example
Let's see how you can track additional jobs based on the relief type from these scenarios.
