Aggregated Metrics
The normal hours, overtime and short time for each day are calculated based on the budget hours and the shift setup specified for that day. When aggregating the hours for a week, they are categorised based on days of the week. This categorisation includes Weekdays (Monday to Friday), Saturdays, Sundays, and Public Holidays. This approach ensures that the calculation of hours worked, including normal hours and overtime, is accurately aligned with the specific working conditions of each day of the week.
Metric Name | Measurement Unit | Day of the Week | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Weekday Normal Hours | Hourly | Monday - Friday | The total normal hours worked on weekdays. |
Weekday Overtime Hours | Hourly | Monday - Friday | The total overtime hours worked on weekdays. |
Saturday Normal Hours | Hourly | Saturday | The total normal hours worked on a Saturday. |
Saturday Overtime | Hourly | Saturday | The total overtime hours worked on a Saturday. |
Sunday Normal Hours | Hourly | Sunday | The total normal hours worked on a Sunday. |

Public Holiday Normal Hours | Hourly | Any public holiday where an employee worked | The total normal hours worked on a public holiday. |
Public Holiday Overtime | Hourly | Any public holiday where an employee worked | The total overtime worked on a public holiday. |
Short Time | Hourly | Any day of the week, given that the day is not marked as optional in the clock template | All hours worked less than budget hours on a day. On an absent day all budget hours are added as short hours. |
Absent Days | Daily | Any day of the week, given that the day is not marked as optional in the clock template | If there are budget hours for a day and the day is not marked as optional and there are no activity for an employee, they are counted as absent. |

Exceptions
Efficiently managing exceptions in time and attendance data is crucial, and the employee overview report simplifies this task with integrated filters and bulk management tools. This report highlights several key exceptions:
Absent: Indicates a lack of employee activity (clocks or piecework) on a day where the budget hours exceed zero and the day is not marked as optional.
Missing Clock In/Out: Occurs when an employee has either clocked in without clocking out, or vice versa.
Overtime: Identified when the hours worked surpass the day's budget hours.
Short Time: Recognized when the hours worked fall short of the day's budget hours.
Extended Day: Indicates when an employee's workday extends into the next calendar day.
Missing Template: The employee is not linked to a clock template on a specific day. This can be caused because the employee is not linked to a team, or the team the employee is linked to is not associated with a clock template.
Missing template on a weekend can be caused when the clock template is not configured for all the days of the week.
When configuring clock templates for different seasons of the year make sure that the templates are linked to each calendar month of the year.

Bulk Overrides
Bulk overrides allow for efficient handling of attendance exceptions in the employee overview report. They can be applied when there are the following exceptions: Absent, Overtime, and Short Time.
How to Add Bulk Overrides
Click on the date exception indicators located at the top of the table, below each date, to access the daily exceptions view.
Navigate to the specific exception—Absent, Overtime, or Short Time.
Select the employees affected and click on 'Bulk Override'. You'll then have several options:
Default to Budget Hours: This will adjust the total hours to match the budget hours set in the clock template for the selected employees.
Set Overtime: Enter the amount of overtime to be added for each employee. Their total hours will be their budget hours plus the provided overtime.
Set Short Time: Enter the short time hours to be added for each employee. Their total hours will be their budget hours minus the provided short time.
Set the Total Hours: Specify the total hours for the selected employees, which may result in overtime or short time depending on how it compares to the budgeted hours.

If you wish to remove all overrides for a given day, click on the gear icon next to the date in the header row and select "Remove all overrides"
Overrides
Total Hours Override
Overrides enable the adjustment of an employee's total daily hours worked, while maintaining the original clocking data. The configured budget hours in the clock template are still used for calculating normal hours and overtime. When overriding the hours, you only provide the total duration that the employee worked; start and end times are not needed.
Overrides can be added in the following two ways:
Access the Employee Timeline and clicking on the "Add Override" button.
Viewing daily exceptions for overtime and short time. Refer to this section for more information: Daily Exceptions.
When selecting the add override option the following dialog will appear. If the employee has existing information it will be prefilled:
Add overrides for more than one activity. Click here to add an additional line.
Change the existing activity. If the employee have existing information for the day the activities will be pre-populated on this list.
Add a block (Optional): Associate this activity and hours with a specific area or block.
Specify the duration in hours and minutes for this activity. You can specify a duration per activity that will be aggregated to calculate the total hours for the day.
The budget hours for the day as configured on the clock template shift. Overtime or short time will also be indicated here if applicable.
Night shift: If this option is enabled this day will be counted as a night shift on the metrics.
Add or update the current override.
Remove items: Remove all activities and durations for this day.
Add Clock Template (shift) Override
Use this feature to adjust an employee's working hours on a day. Common use-cases include weather disruptions or break alterations.

To add a clock template override click on the icon with the three dots in a cell or next to the cogwheel in the date row to add overrides in bulk. Please note that when adding bulk overrides for clock templates all employees in the table will be selected automatically.
