With an time policy, you decide how and when employees track their hours. You set whether employees submit their hours daily or weekly, and whether tracking is mandatory.
Create an hours policy
To add a new hours policy, go to the hours overview and choose actions > add policy. Then fill in the following:
Time policy name
Give the policy a recognisable name, such as 'office staff time tracking'Period
Choose whether employees submit their hours per day or per week.Mandatory submission
Turn this on if employees must track their hours. The system then automatically creates a draft time entry.Default policy
If you turn this on, the policy applies automatically to new colleagues.Automatically approve
Turn on automatic approval of time entries. You can always auto-approve, or only when there are no warnings.
Tip: You can create multiple hours policies. This is useful if you use different rules for tracking hours, e.g. per team, department, or contract type.
