Special Note Regarding "Punch Rounding"
First you must determine the proper rounding unit. If you want to round to the tenth of an
hour, then the interval is 6 minutes. If you want to round punches to the quarter hour, then
the interval is 15 minutes.
The following Rounding Units are available within the 700E:
1. None (exact minute)
2. 6 minutes with a 3 minute breakpoint (tenth of an hour)
3. 15 minutes with a 3 minute breakpoint (quarter hour)
4. 15 minutes with a 7 minute breakpoint (quarter hour)
The following is an example of 15 minute rounding with a 7 minute breakpoint.

When calculating employee hours, it is a common business practice to round to
the nearest quarter or tenth of an hour. The 700E supports both punch and totals
rounding. However, it is important that you understand how punch rounding
works before setting the 700E. Rounding only affects calculations, and actual
punch times are always printed on the time card.
