Why does a salaried employee show $0 for a department?

Question

Why does a salaried employee show $0 for a specific department in the Worked Hours & Wages report?

Answer

A salaried employee showing $0 does not indicate a system error, as a $0 value occurs when appear on schedule profile toggles are disabled or when the employee's assignement settings do not include that department.

What to do

A $0 balance displays differently based on whether you view the Labor Budget Tool on the Schedule page or labour reports (like the Worked Hours & Wages report).

The Labor Budget Tool relies completely on the Appear on Schedule setting. If the Appear on Schedule toggle is turned off for a specific department, the salary allocation automatically displays as $0 within the Labor Budget Tool for that department.

Labor reports, like the Worked Hours & Wages report, tracks actual hours and operates independently of the Appear on Schedule flag. If a salaried employee shows $0 in the Worked Hours & Wages report, the department checkbox within their assignment settings determine the outcome. This happens when the employee is not allocated to that specific department or location.
