Beyond 8 Hours of work is Overtime

Step 1: Review Attendance

As you see, my employees are working on different shifts and as the start time is flexible, they come in a little early or late as per their convenience.

Now, I want to fully automate overtime calculation for my employees by specifying a simple rule. If an employee works beyond 8 hours, he gets paid overtime for the extra hours.

Step 2: Review  Attendance Import Settings

I’ve disabled Early In, Late Out, Overtime and so on from the import settings for my specific requirement.

Step 3: Create an Attendance Group

Let’s create an attendance group to implement this requirement. To calculate the net overtime, we will add the work hours.

To ensure the result doesn’t fall below zero, let’s create a formula. Up to 30 minutes of overtime is ignored. And we don’t want the result to go below zero. So, the formula looks like this

Step 4: Review the Group Results

Now, let’s go to the attendance screen to check if the group works as expected.

As you see, the group now shows net overtime for the period selected.

Step 5: Use the Attendance Group in Overtime Calculation

Step 6: Process Payroll

When you process payroll, the software will automatically calculate the net overtime hours.

That’s all. We have successfully configured Lenvica HRMS to pay my employee for every hour of extra work beyond 8 hours of normal work.
