Calculate Daily and Weekly Totals

At the end of each pay period, calculate regular and overtime hours. Calculations can be run for all employees at once or per time card.

1. Check employee time cards for errors (e.g. no missing clock-in/out events). Add any manual adjustments. Correct any time card errors. See Time Card Edit.
2. Calculate total hours worked each day, taking into account rules for overtime, differential hours, and your preference for breaks over 30 minutes. Adjustments will be made within a clock event; new rows will not be created.
   • To calculate for all employees, click Daily.
   • To calculate for a single employee, click Calc Daily on their time card. If you don't like the results, edit the rules in Time Card Setup and run it again. Overrides can be made to individual clock events.
3. Calculate weekly overtime for employees who worked more than 40 hours in a week.
   • To calculate for all employees, click Weekly.
   • To calculate for a single employee, click Calc Weekly OT on their time card. If the total hours for an employee in a week is over 40, an additional adjustment row will be added for overtime hours. The weekly calculation will cross pay periods.

If using clinics, total hours and overtime hours are assigned by clinic.

Hour Calculation Logic

The math behind time card hour calculations is explained below.

Total hours = all hours worked (includes regular, overtime and differential (Rate 2) hours.

OT hours = overtime hours

Rate 1 hours = hours paid at the regular rate

Rate 2 hours = hours paid at the differential rate

Rate 1 hours = (1 - Rate 2/Total hours) * Regular hours

Rate 2 hours = (1 - Rate 2/Total hours) - Rate 1 hours

So Rate 2 hours + Rate 1 hours = Regular hours

Rate 1 OT hours = (1 - Rate 2/Total hours) * OT hours

Rate 2 OT Hours = (1 - Rate 2/Total hours) - (Rate 1 + Rate 2 + Rate 1 OT hours)
