# Choose where paid days come from: time tracking, schedule or full month

> In Weplanify, the source rule says, site by site, whether paid days come from time tracking, the schedule or the full month, and what to do without data.

In Weplanify, the **source rule** decides where each employee's days come from in the [Time and absences](https://weplanify.io/docs/paie.presence?lang=en) step: a site that clocks in is not paid like a site that works to the schedule.

![The rule, per site: a default source and a fallback source](https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/weplanify/o/docs%2Fpaie%2Fmaj-2026-09-28%2Fpa-regle-sources-4974a1a5.webp?alt=media&token=eaaaaa63-96b7-4008-a72e-4a3afad9f100)

## Steps

1. In the Time and absences step, click **Edit the rule**.
2. In **Default**, pick the main source (**Time tracking**, **Schedule** or **Full month**), then the fallback source, used when the first one knows nothing about the employee.
3. For a site that works differently (a building site that clocks in, for example), set its own rule.
4. Click **Save and preview**, then check the changes and apply them.

## Good to know

- **Full month** pays the month's base minus approved absences, without hours; **No source** leaves the row "without time", to complete.
- Nothing changes before you apply; manual corrections and confirmed rows are never overwritten.
- After a refresh, payslips already computed need to be [recomputed](https://weplanify.io/docs/paie.bulletins?lang=en).
