...
All of an employee’s punches count
...
toward the OT calculation regardless of which client the employee works with. This is the standard for an instance running in
...
service provider security mode.
Client:
...
An employee’s punches are grouped by client and then evaluated for OT. This is only available for instances running in
...
fiscal intermediary security mode.

employee works both under and outside a

funding source in the same pay week

employee's relationship to the

client (

kinship, live-in caregiver, none) so there will always be

three funding source rules for a

, the most employee-friendly rule is used.
If in a payroll batch, an employee works under a

funding source but also works outside of a funding source (

i.e., admin, training, residential, day, parenting, drive) then a company or state rule should be used

employee relationship to

live-in caregivers, then a state rule would be selected.

The amount above their standard pay rate is referred to as a multiplier and is most commonly 1.5 5x or 2 x 2x their normal pay rate.
