How does clock in/out rounding work for breaks?
Clock in/out rounding for breaks adjusts the start and end of each break to the start or end time of the schedule’s time slot, just as it already does for clocking in and out at the start and end of the working day.
Starting a break
If the employee starts a break close to the end of a time slot, work ends at the time corresponding to the time slot and the break starts at that same time.
- Example: schedule until 14:00 with a 15-minute margin. The employee starts the break at 14:05. Work ends at 14:00, and the break starts at 14:00.
Returning from a break
If the employee returns close to the start of a time slot, the break ends at the time corresponding to the time slot, and work starts at that same time.
- Example: time slot starting at 15:00. The employee returns at 15:05. The break ends at 15:00, and work starts at 15:00.
Clocking out during a break
If the employee clocks out during a break, close to the end of the schedule, the break ends at the time corresponding to the time slot.
- Example: schedule until 18:00. The employee clocks out at 18:03. The break ends at 18:00.
Clock ins/outs made a few minutes early
If the employee carries out the action before the time slot’s start or end time, for example, starting the break at 13:58, the change will be applied at the time corresponding to the time slot, in this case 14:00.
Important points
-
Actual time. The exact time of the clock in/out is always saved in the history.
-
Paid and unpaid breaks. Both are rounded in the same way. The daily calculation adds paid breaks and deducts unpaid ones.
-
No gaps or overlaps. Work and break periods are adjusted seamlessly at the limit of each time slot.
- Previous days. Rounding does not recalculate clock ins/outs from previous days.
