The Time & Attendance Module's Supplemental Earnings feature allows employees, managers, and practitioners to report certain types of earnings (such as tips, mileage, meal allowances, and bonuses) that cannot be entered on a time sheet.

The Supplemental Earnings feature also provides a way for companies to collect information that is tracked for accounting or management purposes but is not included in employees' gross payroll totals. For example, restaurants often record their servers' gross receipts per day.

Most forms of supplemental earnings are entered into the Time & Attendance module by employees and are then approved by managers or practitioners. Some supplemental earnings, such as bonuses, can only be entered by managers or practitioners, although employees are able to view any supplemental earnings awarded to them.

As a practitioner, you can perform the following tasks if your company has configured the Time & Attendance module to support supplemental earnings:

• View and edit supplemental earnings transactions reported by employees

• Award supplemental earnings to employees

• Approve supplemental earnings reported by or awarded to employees

• View edit audit information for supplemental earnings transactions

• View summary information about employees' supplemental earnings

Note: If your company supports both features, Supplemental Earnings can be used with Employee Loan.
