VSys One: Volunteer Management Software

Bonus Hours Rules

Bonus hours give you a way of automatically crediting volunteers with extra hours and account records based on the job they're doing. Use bonus hours to:

Give your volunteers bonus hours for working the late shift or on holidays.
Credit them at the gift shop for the work they do.

To define bonus hours crediting rules, from the Setup panel click on Bonus hours rules.

Only one bonus hour crediting rule is ever used when crediting a specific hours record.
Bonus hours rules have an order: the lowest-numbered rule which matches the job being credited will be used.
Rules can be very specific or very general, allowing them to be tailored to your needs.

Tools

Add crediting rule

Creates an all-new bonus hours crediting rule.

On the right-click menu

Right-click on a rule in this list to edit its properties and for other tools relevant to specific rules.

Add crediting rule	Creates an all-new bonus hours crediting rule.
View	Opens the rule's properties screen in read-only mode.
Edit	Edits the properties of this rule.
Make inactive	Deactivates the rule, but does not delete it. (An inactive rule is never used by VSys.) Use this to temporarily disable a rule that you may want to use again later.
Delete	Permanently deletes this rule.
Move up/down	Moves the rule up or down on the list of rules. When VSys searches for rules to apply when crediting hours, it will always use the lowest-numbered applicable rule, and only apply one rule, so order matters. For example, you have a rule that volunteers working on holidays get 2x hours, and volunteers working on a Sunday get 1.5x hours. You will want the Holiday hours rule to be lower numbered so a volunteer working on Easter Sunday gets credited with the Holiday rule (2x) not the Sunday rule (1.5x)
