The O.T. Rate of different O.T. Pay Types are predefined in OT Type and different OT Types are assigned to the employee in Employee Master, Salary Info tab. 

OT Rate

In general, 

OT Rate can be a fixed rate or User-Defined Formula and is defined in OT Type.

OT Hours/Days

Number of OT Hours (or Days) is determined from,

• • 1. The corresponding OT Hours (e.g. Workday, Rest day, Saturday, etc.) in Attendance Records for the attendance period if Enable Attendance Data for OT Pay Calculation for Month-End Payroll Batch or Enable Attendance Data for OT Pay Calculation for Mid-Month Payroll Batch in Attendance Module Setup is turned on

    2. The total number of OT Hours (days) in approved Overtime Compensation Applications for the corresponding attendance period provided that Allow Overtime Compensation compensated by OT Pay in Employee Portal Setup, Overtime Compensation tab is turned on and Disallow Overtime Compensation compensated by OT Pay of the employee in Employee Master, EPortal tab is turned off 

You may need to select one of the above options to determine whether the "Number of OT Hours (Days)" comes from Attendance Records or Approved OT Compensation Applications.

OT Pay = OT Rate (either Hourly or Daily) x OT Hours/Days
