View Accrued Benefit Hours on an Employee's Timecard

This article provides step-by-step instructions on how to enable the Display Benefit Accruals feature within each employee's profile.

Notes:

• The View Benefit Accrual option is only available for employees who punch in the system. If you use uAttend payroll, accruals are available for Hourly and non-exempt salaried employees who punch.
• Supervisors with the necessary permissions can view or edit this information, which can also be limited to certain departments. 
• Employees need access to either the web portal or smartphone app to view their timecard, but they can still check their accrued hours or request time off without accessing their timecard directly. 
• Benefit hours can only be applied to an employee's home department.
• Per Hour accruals only accrue when an employee records punches.
• Per Week, Per Month, and Per Pay Period accruals accrue automatically, even if the employee does not punch.
