The Dispatch Source Code is used on the Absence/Dispatch screen for the replacement employee. The source code can represent why the substitute was chosen (e.g. Requested by teacher, Requested by board office, etc.). In addition, this code can also direct the payroll as to how this dispatch should be paid.
Dispatch Source Code

Enter up to 4 alphanumeric characters for the dispatch source code.
Description
-
Enter up to 30 characters to describe the dispatch source code.
Interface
-
Enter 'Y' if dispatches with this source code are to be interfaced with payroll.
-
Enter 'N' if dispatches with this source code are not to be interfaced with payroll.
Number of Consecutive Days
-
Enter the number of consecutive days that should be used for dispatches with this source code.
-
When a non-zero value is entered, the system uses this value instead of the number of consecutive days calculated from the employee's actual dispatches. This allows the dispatch source to qualify the dispatch for rules or rates that depend on a specific consecutive-day count. Enter
0if the system-calculated consecutive-day count should be used.-
For example, if this field is set to 6, a one-day dispatch using this source code will be treated as having a consecutive-day count of 6 for processing that relies on the consecutive-day count. This can affect which consecutive-day rule or rate applies.
