To configure and display an overtime period that is different from the main time card period, a two-step process is required. First, you must define the period itself by creating a new repeating time period and specifying its Period Type as Overtime. This establishes the start and end dates for the overtime calculation, separate from the regular time card period. Second, to make this period visually distinct on the user interface, you must configure the layout. By enabling the Highlight overtime periods option in the time card matrix properties of the relevant layout set, a visual bar will appear on both the calendar and time card matrix, indicating the defined overtime period.

A. Time categories are used to group time card entries for validation or transfer rules, not to define or display time periods.

B. A formula is a method to determine the start date of a repeating period, but it does not define the period's purpose or UI display.

C. The correct configuration involves setting the "Period Type" to Overtime, not selecting a generic "overtime checkbox in period usage."
