Hi Community members,

 

A solution to last week’s challenge can be found here.

 

This challenge was submitted by Michael Keiffer, @mkeiffer . Thank you, Michael, for your submission!

 

In this week’s challenge your task is to match each hourly worker’s time-in and time-out entries with the correct pay period end dates. Workers are paid on a biweekly schedule, and the list of valid pay period end dates is provided in a separate file.

 

Once you have completed your challenge, include your solution file and a screenshot of your workflow as attachments to your comment.

 

Good Luck!

The Academy Team
