7.5 Revisions
Revisions
Revisions are used to Push (change to a later time) or Pull (change to an earlier time) clockings (using calculated direction), according to the rules set in this window. The results of the revisions can be seen in the ‘Calculated’ column in the Daily Details screen or the ‘Revised’ clockings in the reports.
AUTOMATIC REVISIONS:
Only the revisions that are selected will apply, some have been selected in the example above to demonstrate the operation of each.
Shift Start:
‘Disable All Preshift Time’ - will push all clockings from the ‘Assign clocking to this day, for next 24 hours, starting at’ time to the ‘Shift Start’ time set in under Profile.
‘Change Room Time’ - is the amount of time that will not be regarded as working time, before the shift starts. This is generally used to prevent people earning small amounts of overtime before the shift, which is not permitted.
‘Grace Time’ - is the amount of time employees are permitted to be late.
‘Dock Time’ - is the amount of time to penalize an employee for being late.
Shift End:
‘Disable All Post Shift Time’ - will pull all clockings from the ‘End of Day’ time to the ‘Shift End’ time set in the profile.
‘Wash-up Time’ - is the amount of time that will not be regarded as working time, after the shift ends. This is generally used to prevent people earning small amounts of overtime after the shift, which is not permitted.
‘Grace Time’ - is the amount of early time by which employees are permitted to clock out before the end of shift (without penalty).
‘Dock Time’ - is the amount of time to penalize an employee for clocking out early.
MANUAL REVISIONS (ANY CLOCKINGS)
You can create any number of revisions using the manual configuration. However, it is suggested to create a few automatic revisions, which may be closest to your desired results, then switch to manual revisions and modify the existing revisions to match your exact desired results.
You can switch between Push and Pull options, by clicking the ‘Pull Back’ or ‘Push To’ button. ‘All Clocking’ will apply to all clockings in that time regardless of direction.
‘First In’ will apply the revision only on the first calculated In clocking, ‘Last Out’ will only apply to the last calculated Out clocking for the day.
‘All Out’ will revise all Out clockings within the defined time, ‘All In’ will revise all In clockings within the defined time frame.
In some cases using Roundings (explained earlier) may be better for revising all clockings of the day.
If most Day Programs use the same set of rules for revisions, one can configure the default Day Program’s rules and then easily re-apply the same settings by selecting ‘Use Default Revisions’ on other Day Programs.
The ‘Copy Revision’ button can be used to copy the selected Day Program’s Revision settings. The settings could then be applied by selecting another day program and clicking ‘Paste Revision’.
If the Job Costing module is enabled there will be an option to ‘Exclude Job Costing Clockings’ from Revisions.
