    The program rounds off arrivals always upwards; so, if you pre-set rounding off to 60 minutes and the employe comes in at 08:01 hours, the arrival will be recorded at 09:00 hours.

    Departure is rounded off downwards; so if you pre-set rounding off to 60 minutes and the employee leaves at 15:55, the departure will be recorded at 15:00 hours. Downward rounding off is also for the overall daytime.

  4. By selecting Trim arrival, you will order the program not to count time in the overall attendance, time, the employee spends at work before the start of the shift.

    If you set Trim overtime to one hour: If the employee is at work longer than / less than an hour, there is no overtime eligibility. If the employee stays at work 2 hours, the first hour is not counted as overtime, the second one yes. The employee's overtime is then 1 hour.

  7. After checking Restrict more arrivals, the program will calculate the first reading the employee's chip (arrival) and any other arrival times to work will be ignored.
  8. After checking Automatically slot in a break selection, the program will deduct a duration of a break, whose length has been determined by you, from the hours worked. In the first field, pre-set a uniform length of a break. In fields Break 1 to Break 3, decide and pre-set, after how many hours should individual breaks be included.

    It is necessary that all three breaks are pre-set (for breaks not taken, use high time).

    Example: Pre-set break time for 10 minutes. You determine tha 1st break is after 2 worked hours, 2nd break after 4 worked hours and 3rd break after 6 hours worked. The employee then spends 8 hours at work, but of that, 3 breaks of 10 minutes each are deducted, therefore 1/2 hour. 8 – 0,5 = 7,5. The employee is credited with seven and half hours worked.
