The system implements two types of reports that differ in the logic of calculating the time worked by marks Check-in/Check-out:
- **Hourly Rate** - implies payment by the hour.
- **Fixed Rate** - involves a flat rate of pay
**Report Hourly Rate** - applies to contractors who have an hourly payment type. You can check which type is set for a contract employee in their profile
