When you save your record, all the selections made on the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display on the screen, you can override the defaults.

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.

If the Period Type assigned to the Timesheet Cycle is Weighted Average Period on the Weighed Average Overtime Setup screen and weighted average is processed for a period, the weighted average period’s Processed flag in the Weighed Average Periods table is set to Y (Yes).

From the drop-down list, select whether All or One of the transaction currencies will be part of the selection criteria.

Enter, or click to select, the transaction currency of timesheets that you want to recompute.

Click and select Apply Weighted Average Rates to begin the recomputing process. You must have already printed the report (while still in this screen) to enable this option.

Click and select Print/Apply Weighted Average Rates to print the report and then continue immediately into the recomputing process.

There are several important timing and processing considerations when using this program:

• Run this screen after entering regular timesheets but before processing or posting them in any way, or before exporting them to your outside payroll service.
• This program recomputes only R (Regular), D (Replacement), and L (Labor Only) timesheets; it does not recompute other timesheet types (Correction, Bonus, and so on), and each timesheet is recomputed by itself, even if several are included in the selected time range.
• If an employee's hourly rate is changed on the Manage Employee Salary Information screen after the timesheets are entered but before this program is run, the weighted average hourly rate is not correct.
• All overtime pay types are recomputed even if you selected the Recalculate option in the Weighted Average Rate group box on the Manage Pay Types screen.
• Back up the Timesheet file before beginning this process so that you can return to the original files if necessary.
