Workshift


How to Adjust Work Shifts

  1. At the “Admin Management” field, click on “Work Shift” and locate the shift you want to adjust.

  2. Check and edit key information.

  3. Review the “Name” field to ensure the shift is correctly identified.



Configure Shift Change


Under “Shift Change”, set the time at which the shift change occurs (usually 00:00 | midnight).


This setting indicates the moment at which the system considers the end of one day and the beginning of the next, for the purposes of calculating the working day.



Configure Night Time Additional


In the “Night Shift” section, enter the start time (e.g., 10:00 p.m.) and end time (e.g., 5:00 a.m.) of the shift.


If you prefer, you can choose not to enter a finish time. In this case, the system will calculate the night shift bonus based on the hours worked up to the employee's last clock-in/clock-out.




Adjust the Shift Table by Day of the Week


For each day of the week, review the following time entries:


  • Regular Hours: Check if the percentage is correct (default is 100%).

  • Overtime: Set the overtime limit, the additional percentage and the surplus according to your company policy (the default limit is 2 hours, and overtime within and outside the limit are pre-configured with a weight of 100%).


You can replicate the parameters for the remaining days of the week by clicking the highlighted checkbox.


  • Minimum Interval: Check the minimum break time for lunch or rest.


This setting is only available for weekly shifts, as no shift12x36h, the break is already incorporated into the 12-hour workday and therefore does not require separate configuration in the system.


  • Periods: Add the work periods of the day, indicating the start and end time of each one.


Use the + Add Period button to include additional periods if needed.



Save Changes


After reviewing and adjusting all information, click the “Save” button to confirm your changes. The changes will take effect the following day.


If you wish, you can apply the changes retroactively—which will affect records up to the last submission of the month—by clicking “Save” and “Update”.



Associate a Work Shift with an Employee


After creating the work shifts, simply open the employee's profile, go to the "Work Shift” tab and select the corresponding work shift. Then click "Save."
