Configure Time and Compliance Exceptions and Alerts

You can prevent time exceptions by checking compliance outside of the time management process using workforce compliance time rule sets and HCM groups.

1. Go to Setup and Maintenance > Workforce Deployment > Time and Labor.
2. If the delivered fast formulas don't meet your requirements, create your own formulas using the Fast Formulas task. The delivered fast formulas identify missing time attestations, card, and entries. There's also a reminder escalation formula.
3. Create and edit workforce compliance rule templates using the Time Rule Templates task. Use time categories in the templates to summarize time and compare different categories of time.
4. Create and edit workforce compliance rules using the Time Rules task.
5. Create and edit collections of workforce compliance rules and rule sets using the Time Rule Sets task.
6. Create and edit groups to identify the workers you want to link to workforce compliance rules using the HCM Groups task.

   You use these groups when you schedule the Generate Time Exceptions from Compliance Rules process.

   You can reuse the existing HCM groups that are part of your worker time entry profiles. Or you can create as many HCM groups to identify time exceptions as makes sense for your organization. For example, you could create separate groups for each department, legislative data group (LDG), or business unit. You can also create a list of specific individuals.

7. Run the Generate Time Exceptions from Compliance Rules process once or schedule it to run regularly.
   1. Go to Tools > Schedule Processes.
   2. On the Advanced tab, select the appropriate combination of workforce compliance rule set, HCM group name, and date range.
   3. Select Send alert immediately to notify the relevant managers and workers about the noncompliance.

      Otherwise the process stores the compliance message as part of the existing time card data for that period. If a time card doesn't exist, the process stores it with the appropriate person and the time card period data.

   4. If you're sending alerts, select the HWM Time Exceptions from Compliance Rules template or the appropriate timeRecords or timeRecordsGroup resource alert notification that you created.
   5. Specify to run the process as soon as possible or using a schedule with a recurring frequency.
   6. Submit the process.
