How to enter overtime (Compensatory Time Off)

Overtime is not yet in eServices and so needs to be entered manually by the leave monitor when taken as Compensatory Time Off (CTO)

Overtime needs to be entered in the month, where the overtime was earned. This is done in the Payroll Module.

Go to Global Payroll/Payee Data/Adjust Balances/Absences

  • Enter Index Number
  • Enter Pay Group (as applicable for your country office; for HQ GS staff, enter USA_GSDP)
  • Enter Calendar ID as applicable for your country office; for HQ GS staff, enter USA_  and click on the magnifying glass to select the month of CTO earned.
  • Click Search
In the next screen, enter the Element Name as "Compensatory Time Off x1.5" and enter the number of HOURS worket for that CTO rate in the Balance Adjustment screen.

For CTO worked at double rate, add another line to enter the element "Compensatory Time Off x2". Enter the number of hours worked at double rate.
