Paid Hours

The Paid Hours feature allows payroll hours to be entered manually in the system. If you record mechanic paid hours, the RTA system can provide a report showing the ratio between actual hours worked and paid hours. This "efficiency" ratio should correlate to the indirect vs. direct hours as well.

Paid Hours Entry

To record the paid hours, do the following:

  1. Select WOs > Paid Hours Entry from the RTA main menu (WH).
  2. Enter password level 1.
  3. Enter an employee number or abbreviation, press F1 to select an employee from the lookup list, or press F2 to start with the first employee on file.
  4. Enter the paid hours for the week, month, and last month as needed. The numbers entered here will replace the current values shown.
  5. Choose OK to accept the entry. Choose Get Next to accept the entry and bring up the next employee on file.

NOTE: Paid hours figures are not affected nor are they updated by the data processed in RTA, including end of period processes for mechanics.

Paid Hours Reports
