Description: In this topic, the user will learn what the available pay codes are; how to search, view, edit, and export pay codes; and how to filter pay code events. There are many different types of pay codes available, and several have the option to be custom or default. Custom pay codes mean there is a current and active pay rate on the service account from which the punch entry was created. Default pay codes mean there is not a current or active pay rate on the service account from which the punch was created.

*Please note: The Pay Codes feature is located in the Settings module and allows a user to adjust the pay codes and the associated descriptions. The pay code will distinguish different pay types on the payroll file produced by DCI. Customers should ensure the pay codes match the codes in their payroll engine.
