How do I allocate hours based on a percentage? (Employees)
Set up an employee position template to allocate hours based on a percentage. When the time default is set to 100% and an employee changes a clock in/out time, Connect will add an allocation to the employee's timesheet. Connect will create an hours allocation so the employee's timesheet total matches the time entered.

6. Use the Percentage box to enter a percentage 0 to 100%.
You can set up a different percentage for each task and activity. The percentage does not need to equal 100%. For example, Pat sets up a template for task 1, activity 1 for 60% and then Pat sets up another template for task 2, activity 2 for 40%. When the employee using the template enters hours, Connect will use the hours entered times the percentage to calculate the total hours. In this scenario, task 1, activity 1 calculates total hours times 60% and task 2, activity 2 calculates total hours times 40%.
