Schedules 29
Cut-Off: The cutoff determines the logical cutoff for a shift. An employee clocking in between
the shift start time and the cut-off is said to be clocking in late for the assigned shift. An
employee clocking between the cut-off and the stop time is said to be clocking in early for the
next shift.
Diff.: Check if shift differential is paid.
Math: + if the differential will be added. * if the differential will be multiplied.
Add/Multi.: Enter the value that will be added or multiplied.
Round In Every: This is used to round time outside of the shift start/stop window. This can
be considered your pay interval round or your accounting unit. If you pay every five minutes
the employees are on the clock enter 5 here, if you pay every 15 minutes enter 15 here.
Grace Back: is used to tell the system what part of the accounting unit will be rounded back. If
your Round In is set to 15 and your Grace back is set to 7, and the employee punches the clock
at 09:07, that time is rounded back to 09:00.
Round Forward: is used to tell the system what part of the accounting unit will be rounded
forward. If your Round In is set to 15 and your Round Forward back is set to 8, and the
employee punches the clock at 09:08, that time is rounded forward to 09:15.
The process for Round Out Every is exactly the same as rounding the IN punch except it
occurs for the out punch.
IN-Punch Grace Back: Grace back is used to round IN punches back to the shift start time.
Employee punches that occur within the grace period will be treated as if they occurred exactly
on the start time. This is separate from Grace Back on the Pay Interval. IN punches that occur
within the grace period will reported as graced in on the Attendance Summary on the time
cards.
Round Forward: This is used to round punches outside the shift start time up to the shift start.
This is separate from Round In Every. For example, the shift starts at 08:00 and employees
routinely clock in as early as 07:25 to keep from being late. Setting the round in to 45 minutes
will round any IN punches that occur between 07:15 and 08:00 up to 08:00 so that time is not
accrued as regular time.
Dock Forward: The minimum minutes an employee will lose from time worked totals if they
clock in after the shift start time plus the grace period. For example, the shift starts at 08:00, the
grace is 5 minutes and the dock is 15 minutes. If the employee clocks in at 08:05, his or her
time is rounded back to 08:00 and he or she is considered on time. If the employee clocks in at
08:06, he or she is considered late. His or her time is rounded forward to 08:15 and starts to
accrue at that time.
Out-Punch Grace Forward: Grace forward is used to round OUT punches forward to the
shift stop time. Employee punches that occur within the grace period will be treated as if they
occurred exactly on the stop time. This is separate from Round Out Every Grace on the Pay
Interval.
