Clicking in the fields under the Work Status link will open a dropdown menu from which you may select the
various status options applicable to the cast members’ work for each day. The abbreviations are as follows:
SH: Start Hold, SW: Start Work, W: Work, WD: Work Drop, PW: Prep Work, PWF: Prep Work Finish, H:
Hold, HF: Hold Finish, R: Rehearsal, WF: Work Finish, T: Travel, FT: Finish Travel, SWF: Start Work
Finish and HOL: Holiday.
You may click on the Edit… option at the bottom of
the list to open the Edit Value List “Work Status”
window and add any custom abbreviations you
require. Once you’ve done so, click the OK button
to close the window and continue working on the
time card.
Note that if the status for all of the days on your
time card are going to be the same, you can click on
the Work Status link and the choice you made for
the first day will be automatically inserted for all the
other dates in the calendar.
Use the scroll bar at the bottom of the program window to reveal the columns on the right side of the hourly
grid:
Stunt Adjustments can be manually entered in the Stunt Adj. column. Once the MagicPay button is clicked,
the amount will be displayed in the MagicPay grid, along with the account number you established for this
pay type in the Deal Memo section of the time card.
The Rate by Day column displays the result of the pay rate divided by the number of hours established by
the SAG Schedule you chose for this record. So, this is the actors’ hourly rate of pay.
Any mileage for this cast member can be manually entered in the Miles column. Once the MagicPay button
is clicked, this number will be multiplied by the rate you established for this pay type in the Deal Memo
section of the time card. The calculated amount will be displayed in the MagicPay grid, along with the
account number you established for this pay type in the Deal Memo section of the time card.
