Standard Shift Rules

No PAY before shift starts and After ends– : Our Attendance Management Software is designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind. You can opt for the “No Pay until Shift Starts and Ends” feature, which can be confident that you’ll pay compensation for the exact hours worked. 

Once applied the system would only calculate hours as per the shift definition regardless of clock in clock out timings.

Auto Apply Breaks – We have an option for Auto Apply Break if the employee did not specify a break, you just need to put minimum hours to apply this feature.Wherein the system would automatically apply breaks based on on logic applied

Auto clock out – The auto clock out feature is intended to address punch exceptions by simply keeping the auto clock out option at shift level, with the system automatically updating the clock out record if an employee forgets to clock out.
