  • Property Data Rounding. Uses the values set in the property data table to round the punches.
    • Clock BACK. Rounds the BACK punches from the time clock.
    • Clock BREAK. Rounds the BREAK punches from the time clock.
    • Clock IN. Rounds the IN punches from the time clock.
    • Clock OUT. Rounds the IN punches from the time clock.
    • Manual BACK. Rounds the BACK punches created by users.
    • Manual BREAK. Rounds the BREAK punches created by users.
    • Manual IN. Rounds the IN punches created by users.
    • Manual OUT. Rounds the OUT punches created by users.
  • Minute Rounding. Rounds time based on the punch type and the configured Round To minutes.
    • BACK Round To. Rounds BACK punches to the nearest X minutes.
    • BREAK Round To. Rounds BREAK punches to the nearest X minutes.
    • Clock BACK. Rounds BACK punches from the time clock.
    • Clock BREAK. Rounds the BREAK punches from the time clock.
    • Clock IN. Rounds IN punches from the time clock.
    • Clock OUT. Rounds OUT punches from the time clock.
    • IN Round To. Rounds IN punches to the closest X minute.
    • Manual BACK. Rounds BACK punches created by users.
    • Manual BREAK. Rounds BREAK punches created by users.
    • Manual IN. Rounds IN punches created by users.
    • Manual OUT. Rounds OUT punches created by users.
    • OUT Round To. Rounds OUT punches to the nearest X minutes.
  • Worked Hours Rounding. Allows you to round the Out punch time based on shift hours worked, and the configured Round To minutes. Note that this rule cannot be combined with other rounding rules.
    • Round To. Allows you to round to the nearest amount of minutes you determine.
  • Round IN to Schedule. Rounds time based on punch type and configured Round To minutes.
    • Clock IN. Denotes that you want the IN punches from the time clock, to be rounded.
    • Grace Post Schedule Start. Allows you to determine the grace period after the start of the schedule, after which rounding begins.
    • Grace Pre Schedule Start. Allows you to determine the grace period prior to the start of the schedule, before which rounding begins.
    • Manual IN. Denotes that IN punches created by users are rounded.
    • Round Time To. Rounds IN punches to the closest designated minute.
    • Rounding Options. Denotes the method to be used for rounding punches.
      • Nearest. Denotes that the punch should be rounded to the nearest designated minute.
      • Up. Denotes that the punch should be rounded up to the next minute.
      • Down. Denotes that the punch should be rounded down to the previous minute.
      • None. Denotes that the punch should not be rounded.
    • Verify job. Rounds only if the job matches the scheduled job.

Examples of Rounding Options:

Rule configured as follows:
Clock IN = Yes 
Grace Post Schedule Start = 0 
Grace Pre Schedule Start = 14 
In Round To = 5 
Manual IN = Yes 
Verify Job = No 

Results when set to the following Rounding Options: 
NEAREST 

  • Schedule a shift to begin at 7:00 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 7:02 (punch should round to 7:00) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:47 (punch should round to 7:00) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:41 (punch should round to 6:40) 

UP 

  • Schedule a shift to begin at 7:00 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 7:02 (punch should round to 7:05) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:47 (punch should round to 7:00) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:41 (punch should round to 6:45) 

DOWN 

  • Schedule a shift to begin at 7:00 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 7:03 (punch should round to 7:00) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:47 (punch should round to 7:00) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:41 (punch should round to 6:40) 

NONE 

  • Schedule a shift to begin at 7:00 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 7:03 (punch should not round) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:47 (punch should round to 7:00) 
  • Enter an IN Punch for 6:41 (punch should not round)
  • Round OUT to Schedule. Rounds time based on punch type and configured Round To minutes.
  • Back From Break With Grace. With this work rule, users can configure grace periods on back from break punches so that back punches will be rounded to the break threshold length if they fall within the grace period. This rule is helpful in locations where there are long lines at the Time Clocks. If the work rule is applied, employees only get charged for the break time taken and not the time they spent waiting in line at the Time Clock.

    • Break Length. Break length (in minutes) to check and round to if the break time falls within the grace period parameter.

    • Grace Period. If break length falls within +/- grace period (in minutes), the back punch will be rounded to make the break length equal to the configured break length parameter.

  • Clock OUT. Denotes that you want the OUT punches from the time clock, to be rounded.
  • Grace Post Schedule End. Allows you to determine the grace period after the end of the schedule, after which rounding begins.
    • Grace Pre Schedule End. Allows you to determine the grace period prior to the end of the schedule, before which rounding begins.
    • Manual OUT. Rounds OUT punches created by users.
    • OUT Round To. Rounds OUT punches to the closest designated minute.
    • Verify job. Rounds only if the job matches the scheduled job.
