Hours per Year This column displays the number of hours the employee accrues for the benefit year.
Starting Balance This column displays the employee's balance for the accrual at the beginning of the benefit year. This balance is the number of hours available to the employee on the first day of the benefit year.

Amount @ Cost Rate or Amount at Pay Rate

If you are not using Payroll, this column is labeled Amount @ Cost Rate. DPS calculates the monetary value of the accrued hours as follows: Current accrual balance x Employee’s job cost rate. You specify employee job cost rates on the Accounting tab of the Employees hub.

If are using Payroll, this column is labeled Amount @ Pay Rate. DPS calculates the monetary value of the accrued hours as follows: Current balance x Employee's hourly pay. (You specify employee pay rates on the Payroll tab in the Employees hub.)
