Creating Time & Labor Rules

This is Time & Labor functionality. To have Time & Labor enabled, contact your Account Manager.

Time & Labor rules can be set up within the Bullhorn One platform and are added to Company, Placement and Job records to interpret the Timesheet hours and calculate them appropriately. Follow the steps below to create Time & Labor rules.

  1. Navigate to Menu > Admin > Time & Labor Rules to see a list of the current rules.
  2. Select ADD TIME & LABOR RULE + in the upper right corner
  3. Fill out the following fields in the General Information section: 
    • Rule Type: In this field select the Category and Rule Type that will be used for this rule. These are standard categories and rule types and are not configurable.
    • Name: Must be a unique name that will be used to add rules to records.
    • Calculation Type: Select if this rule will be used for Pay, Bill or Pay & Bill.
    • Country: Choose between the United States or Canada.
    • Applicable States/Provinces: Select which States or Provinces this rule applies to. Whether "States" or "Provinces" appear is determined by the Country you selected.
    • Combine Criteria: Select Candidate or Placement. This information defines the level at which data will be aggregated.
    • Status: Select Active or Inactive. Only Rules with an Active status can be added to records.
  4. Fill out the fields in the Time & Labor Rule Type Information section. The fields in this section are determined by the Rule Type.
    • Some Rules allow you to choose between Type and Individual for the Earn Code Level.
      • Type: Allows you to choose a type of Earn Code for your Source Earn Codes (for example, Reg). This ensures you don't have to select every individual Earn Code for the Rule to apply to.
      • Individual: Allows you to choose individual Earn Codes for the Rule to apply to.
  5. Click Save.
