If I set the day end buffer so we don't pay for late clocking, how do I handle it when we ask someone to work late?
I have a few questions too, but I think I have the answer to this. At least, if I understand how it works, and you handle late clock-ins like we do. We assume that if people clock out less than 5 minutes late they are leaving on time. If they clock out more than 5 minutes late they were actually working and we pay them. So, our clock out buffer is 5 minutes past normal clock out. You could also enter a buffer of 30 minutes - anyone who clocks out up to 30 minutes late gets clocked out at the shift end, but if it's more than 30 minutes they get clocked out at the actual clock out time. If you ask someone to work late only rarely you can set a large clock out buffer and then manually edit the record(s).
My questions:
If you give someone a Shift # of 0, does this not apply - i.e. they get marked as in when they clock in and out when they clock out?
I see you can enter a Shift Name, but you still assign shifts by number?
