Default OT/Comp Wage Code: Select the default overtime/comptime code for the employee's default timesheet.

Default Doubletime Code: Select the default double time code for the employee's default timesheet. This code does not need to be on the employee's default timesheet, and it is highly recommended that it not be added to the default timesheet so employees cannot select the OT/Comp Wage Code for non OT/Comp time entries.

Use Earnings Code for Leave Entry: Select the earnings code for leave entry for the employee's leave time entries. You can leave this field blank if the employee is an exempt employee.

Default Leave Cost Center: Select the default cost center to use for employee leave. This can be the same or different as the Default Earnings Cost Center.

Note: If the employee is an exempt employee, select the Create Entries on Approved Leave Request and enter a Default Leave Cost Center, but leave the Use Earnings Code for Leave Entry blank to create a leave entry without creating a wage associated to the leave entry.
