Approved time and leave flow into pay
What moves
An approved weekly timesheet becomes one payroll work entry per worked day, with overtime as its own entry. Approved leave becomes one eight-hour entry for each calendar day of leave, typed paid or unpaid, and a rejected or cancelled leave removes them. Payroll's pre-run checks can flag employees with no clock records in the pay period, and payroll reads the weekend days set in Attendance. The pay run prices overtime from payroll's own overtime rate, not the multipliers kept in Attendance.
