XXX Human Resources provides a number of methods to enter time for the capture of positive or exception time for hourly or salaried employees. Your institution may utilize the flexibility of rules-based processing to define how and what type of time an employee, department, or central payroll office will enter based upon the type of employee. You can use various time entry methods in combination with each other, allowing differing methods of entry for employees in a pay period. You can choose any combination of these methods according to your institution’s needs.

***

When using Employee Web Time Entry and Department Time Entry with Approvals, it is possible to designate your employees as positive time entry or exception time entry only. Review of time entered and approvals may be completed by individuals via XXX Employee Self-Service, or online in XXX Human Resources.

***

Payroll staff can audit individual time entered rather than performing actual data entry. Supervisors and managers will be presented with submitted employee timesheets, advance leave requests, and/or leave reports for review and approval. The XXX Human Resources system holds the payroll rules and pushes appropriate requirements to the employees based on their respective positions with the institution (e.g., positive versus exception time).

Hi María Eugenia! I do realise that you must have come up with this option yourself, but it's the only thing that occurs to me. While your text differentiates clearly between these two time types and the fact that either one of them may apply to an individual employee, depending on the circumstances, it doesn't actually say what each term means. Both types of time may be overtime categories ...

Good luck!
