Our automatic overtime rules are easily configurable to be in line with your company's time tracking workflow. When setting up the rules, make sure all scenarios are included in the system.

For instance, set up an overtime rule for 8 hours. This means that any time over 8 hours is considered overtime. However, this would not catch people working over 40 hours in a week (7 hours for 6 days).

In this case, we would have a weekly rule for over 40 hours a week.

Create a profile for your overtime rules, then add each specification that is in line with your company. Click on the (+) icon to create a new profile or use the gear icon (⚙️) to edit an existing profile.

There are two ways to configure your Overtime Rules: Tags or Classification. This allows you greater control over how you want to set your overtime rule and to whom.

Name/Description: The "Name" will appear above the description when viewing the profile. For example, "BC Rules" is the name and "default rule to apply" is the description in the screenshot above.

User tags: Create specialty overtime rules for users with certain tags. Custom tags can always be added via the "Team" tab(Dashboard > Team > Click on a user name > Tags > Input tag > Enter).

Classifications: Switch over to Classifications if you want to set your overtime rules based on the classifications chosen for your users. Classifications can always be added via the "Team" tab (Dashboard > Team > Click on a user name > Classification > Input classification > Enter)

Excluded Cost Codes and Work Type - When you have added work types for certain users, you can use this data to exclude them from the rule over time. The same goes for "Cost Code".

Work Types can be added or edited via the "Customization" tab (Dashboard > Company Settings > Modules > Time > Customization > Work Type) and Cost Codes can be added or edited via the "Cost Code" tab (Dashboard > Company Settings > Cost Code).

Combine these options or use them individually to specify your exact conditions.
