| Summary | If the Approve By Schedule Post Calculation work rule is not configured to approve overtime, a shift that surpasses the OT threshold is unapproved. |
|---|---|
| Description | Some properties have a backend configuration enabled that allows the Time Clock to record a new Out punch after an employee answers post punch questions. This configuration is known as the adjustPunchTimeForPostPunchResponse flag. In some instances of previous releases, if a property had the adjustPunchTimeForPostPunchResponse flag enabled and an Approve By Schedule Post Calculation work rule in place, some overtime shifts were automatically approved by the system, even if the work rule was not configured to approve overtime. For example, an employee punched out of their shift at the designated time. Because the total hours for the shift were under the configured daily OT threshold and matched the scheduled hours, the Approve By Schedule Post Calculation work rule approved the shift. The employee was then presented with post punch questions. After the employee responded to all post punch questions, a new Out punch was recorded. The total hours for the shift, including the time it took the employee to answer the post punch questions, now surpassed the configured daily OT threshold. Because the shift had already been approved with the previously recorded Out time, the approved status for the shift remained. |
| Solution | The software has been updated so that, if the Approve By Schedule Post Calculation work rule is not configured to approve overtime, a shift that surpasses the OT threshold is unapproved. |
| Updated versions | Version 9.20 and later. |
