Why are payable days shown in decimals?

What Are Payable Days?

Payable days include:

• Worked days

• Paid leaves

• Holidays

• Weekends (optional)

Admins can choose to:

• Include or exclude holidays/weekends

• Set Pay Days in a Month between 20–31 or use Actual Days for accurate payroll.

Why Are Payable Days Sometimes in Decimals?

If an employee joins or exits mid-month, and the pay group uses a fixed value like 30 days, the system will calculate prorated payable days as a decimal.

Example: If an employee joins on January 11 and Pay Days are set to 30, their payable days might show as 20.32/30.
