A new flexible overtime framework introduces configurable special rates and enhanced work pattern logic to better support complex payroll and overtime requirements.
Roles impacted:
- Payroll Teams
- HR / Administrators
- Managers / Supervisors
Value this change will add:
- Provides greater flexibility for overtime configuration and payroll calculations
- Supports more complex and region-specific overtime structures
- Improves maintainability and scalability of overtime rules across clients
Change Details:
- Introduced User Defined Special Rates within Work Patterns
- Added support for configurable overtime structures and special rate rules
- Enhanced Work Pattern configuration to support flexible overtime frameworks
- Improved UI layouts and configuration flows related to overtime management
- Designed framework to support different regional and client-specific overtime requirements
In the example below it shows how all hours up to 35 hours per week are paid at the base rate, while between 35 & 40 hours are paid at base + 10% and between 40 & 48 hours are paid at base + 50%


The schedule will reflect the Wage Cost accordingly based on the overtime rules

Wage cost will reflect accordingly on the Mobile App

Assumptions & Limitations:
- Overtime behaviour depends on client configuration and payroll setup
- Additional payroll compliance rules may still require country-specific processing logic
- Existing overtime calculations remain unchanged unless new configurations are applied
Impact:
- Greater flexibility in overtime configuration and calculation
- Improved support for international and complex payroll structures
- Reduced dependency on hardcoded overtime logic
