Time and Attendance Management Flashcards

How does ADP Time & Attendance integrate with ADP payroll to reduce manual data entry?

Answer: Time & Attendance automatically sends approved hours to the payroll system, eliminating manual timesheet data entry and reducing errors

ADP's seamless integration between Time & Attendance and payroll automatically transfers approved employee hours, reducing manual entry, errors, and processing time.

Under the FLSA, what is the maximum number of hours a non-exempt employee can work in a workweek before overtime pay is required?

Answer: 40 hours

The FLSA requires that non-exempt employees receive overtime pay at 1.5 times their regular rate for all hours worked beyond 40 in a single workweek.

In ADP, what is the 7-minute rounding rule for time punches?

Answer: If an employee punches in within 7 minutes before or after their scheduled time, the punch is rounded to the scheduled time; beyond 7 minutes it rounds to the nearest quarter-hour

ADP supports the FLSA-permitted rounding practice where punches within 7 minutes of a quarter-hour boundary are rounded to that boundary, as long as the practice averages out over time.

What is the difference between 'exempt' and 'non-exempt' employees under the FLSA as it relates to time and attendance tracking?

Answer: Non-exempt employees must track all hours worked and receive overtime; exempt employees receive a fixed salary and are not entitled to overtime

FLSA non-exempt employees must have all hours recorded and are entitled to overtime pay, while exempt employees receive a salary regardless of hours worked and generally need not track time.

In ADP Time & Attendance, what is a 'schedule template' used for?

Answer: To define recurring work patterns (shifts, days, hours) that are assigned to employees to automate scheduling and compare scheduled vs. actual hours

Schedule templates in ADP Time & Attendance define standard work patterns that can be assigned to employees, enabling automatic schedule creation and scheduled-versus-actual hour comparisons.

What is 'paid time off (PTO) accrual' and how does ADP automate it?

Answer: PTO accrual is the automatic accumulation of leave time based on hours worked or tenure; ADP calculates and tracks balances according to company-configured accrual rules

ADP automates PTO accrual by applying company-defined rules (e.g., hours per pay period, tenure tiers) to calculate and maintain real-time employee leave balances.
