Punch Rounding
Punch rounding lets you choose whether punches are automatically rounded up, down, or to the nearest whole number based on the predetermined interval you specify. This can last anywhere from 2 to 30 minutes. This is useful if you have a large number of people punching in at the same time on the same device or if you want to ensure that your employees are not punching in before or after their shift begins.
How to create a punch rounding rule
Log in to your account and go to settings, select attendance rules, and punch rounding.
Dashboard > Settings > Attendance Rules > Punch Rounding
You can choose options like rounding in or rounding out, or rounding the clock up or down from the rounding options.
Understanding the Logic for Punch Rounding, Up, Down, and Auto
Punch Rounding Auto Mode:- The punch rounding auto mode would round off the clock-in clock-out timings to the nearest whole number; for example, if the punch rounding auto is set for 10 minutes and the employee clocks in at 7:03 am, the actual clock-in timings would round off to 7:00 Am, whereas if the clock in timings is 7:06 Am the clock would round off to 7:10 AM.
Punch Rounding Up:- The punch rounding up would round off the clock-in clock-out timings to the nearest whole number in an increasing manner; for example, if the punch rounding up is set for 10 minutes and the employee clocks in at 7:03 am, the actual clock-in timings would round off to 7:10 Am.
Punch Rounding Down:- The punch rounding down would round off the clock-in clock-out timings to the nearest whole number in a decreasing manner; for example, if the punch rounding up is set for 10 minutes down and the employee clocks in at 7:03 am, the actual clock-in timings would round off to 7:00 Am.
