Symptoms

A monthly, salaried, non-exempt FLSA employee has a split Job Earnings distribution to two different combo codes. For each combo code, there is an amount going to REG and an amount going to a shift differential earnings code. The employee has a mid pay period Job change. When paycalc is run, it is causing a Divide by Zero Error in PSPECALC. The issue appears to be caused because the paycalc process is assigning the shift differential earning to a non-working day.

Steps to Replicate. 

1. Add Job Earnings Distribution to regular earnings and shift differential two different combo codes.
