# Sum of Pay Type Hours Restriction

Description on Site: Sum of pay types hours should be ***less than/greater than ...*** some ***number*** hours in ***a timesheet/day*** period.

This rule restricts employees to only enter greater than (or equal to), less than (or equal to), a certain number of hours on specified pay types. This can be specifed for a day, a timesheet period, or a week. When an employee attempts to submit a timesheet breaking this rule, they will get a message stating “*If you You should charge \[RULE\] hours to pay types –\[PAY TYPE\] in a \[day/week/timesheet period\].*”
