| Awarding Supplemental Earnings to Employees | 
 | 
Important: These instructions are intended for practitioners who do not have access to the Manager role. If you have manager user rights, we recommend that you perform this task from the Manager role.
If your company has enabled the Supplemental Earnings feature, you can create new supplemental earnings records to award supplemental earnings to employees who belong to security groups to which you have access.
Note: Most forms of supplemental earnings (such as mileage or tips) 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.
To award supplemental earnings, such as a bonus, to an employee:
From the Time & Attendance menu, select Timecards. Either the Single Employee Timecard Manager or the Multiple Employee Timecard Manager will open, depending upon your Timecard Manager Preferences.
Note: If the Timecards option is not visible, make sure that you have selected Practitioner in the Role Selector.
If the Multiple Employee Timecard Manager opens, click the Single Employee View link near the upper right corner of the page to view the Timecard Manager for one employee. If the single employee Timecard Manager opens, skip this step.
In the top right corner of the Timecard Manager, click the Supplemental Earnings link to open the Supplemental Earnings page.
Tip: If the Supplemental Earnings link is not visible, your company does not support supplemental earnings in the Time & Attendance module. Contact an ADP Time & Attendance Representative if you want to enable the Supplemental Earnings feature.

	 earnings for today, click  and select Today.

Note: Although this step is not required, adjusting the supplemental earnings view to reflect an appropriate date range can simplify the process of entering a new supplemental earnings record. You can enter supplemental earnings for any date in the current or next pay period, even if you are viewing a different date range. If you do this, the transaction will be recorded when you click Submit, but it will disappear from the Supplemental Earnings page you are viewing because the new record falls outside the date range being viewed. To view the new supplemental earnings record, you will have to adjust the date range of the Supplemental Earnings page.

Notes:
	Any supplemental earnings transaction you create will be recorded in 
	 the edit audit trail with your user ID and default edit reason code. 
	 If you have not specified a default reason code in your user options, 
	 your company's default edit reason code will automatically be used 
	 in the edit audit trail. The reason code allows a person viewing the 
	 edit audit trail to know why an edit was made. If you do not want 
	 to use your company's default edit reason code, you can select 
	 a different edit reason code.
	
	You can view the

	After you submit a supplemental earnings record, the Time & Attendance module 
	 performs any calculations required to figure the total amount for 
	 the record and displays the result in the Final Amount column. For 
	 example, if you enter 100 miles and your company policy provides compensation 
	 of $.37 per mile, the Final Amount column will display $37.00 after 
	 you click Submit.
	
	After you have successfully submitted a supplemental earnings transaction, 
	 the transaction may still require manager 
	 approval if required. To approve the transaction, click the Supervisor 
	 Approval check box and click the Submit 
	 button.
