Hi NATTYMAC 

 

Even though it says hourly there you would just put in the amount they are going to get paid for the day of being on call.

 

If they were on call one week Monday and Wednesday, then when processing the pay you would enter 2 in the hours.

      Hi NATTYMAC 

       

      In  the fixed hourly rate. then attach the employees that will ever be on call.

       

      Then when they are on call you enter the number of days they were on call.
