Approving Employee Overtime

< 1 min read

Using Myshift settings it is possible to add an overtime approval zone to each shift.

For example if you have a shift that ends at 17:00 you may have employees gradually going home and clocking out up to 17:15 but if they clock out between 17:15 to say 19:00 you want to know about it as this may be approved overtime.

Setting up OT Approval is the answer as below and this can be set in the employees personal Myshift setup or as a group or global setup. Or if setting for an individual within their personell record select the Shift tab followed by Add New Zone.

To access this setup navigate to Settings / Myshift / Edit / Add New Zone


Setting a zone for this time will highlight any clocking times in this zone to the operator as an exception of Overtime Approval to be found in the Manage Exceptions page and if the operator resolves that exception it is deemed as accepted as authorised and the hours worked will be calculated and added to the employees totals. If the operator does not do this then no hours will be calculated for this extra time.
