Is it possible to have a setting for the number of
total regular hours, before overtime hours kick-in.
Perhaps on a per-user basis so that salaried employees
can be exempt from the overtime setting, and hourly
employees can have the overtime calculated. Perhaps a
setting in the user setup where you could select the
total number of regular hours before overtime is
calculated on its own. Then, if the user exceeds the
number of regular hours, it will keep track of the OT
hours. When you print the daily report for the
employees that get OT calculated, perhaps there could
be a calculation for regular and OT hours on a per-day
basis, and then a grand total at the bottom of the
report.

    I agree that it would be VERY helpful for the application to
    calculate overtime, but it should be careful to do it in an
    flexible way because "OT" varies according to region: USA
    vs. UK, California vs. Washington, etc.

    For example, "The FLSA does not require overtime pay for
    work on Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, or regular days of rest."

    This issue relates to 1476394 because (AFAIK) averaging two
    pay periods together is not allowed, but it is typical to
    pay on a two week basis and therefore want one report for
    the two weeks.
