A shift can be defined as a set of rules enforcing Company policy pertaining to Employee’s hours
worked and lunch breaks. When an employee is assigned to a shift, the software then refers to set
of rules defined for that shift and applies them to the employee's transactions in order to derive the
total time accumulations.
There are twelve shifts and lunches available in the Attendance Rx software package. Each shift
may be defined differently with its own set of rules. These can be broken down into two groups,
as described below.
Editing Shift and Lunch Rules:
•
From the main window of Attendance Rx, click the Shifts icon or from the View menu select
Shifts.
•
Select one of the 12 shifts to edit from the pull-down menu.
•
You may change the name of the Shift by selecting the existing shift and and modifying the text.
•
If the selected shift rule is to be enabled, select Shift Rules Enabled so that a check mark appears
in the box. Edit the Shift Start, Stop, Round, Grace, and Dock times to fit your company policies.
Note: You can select 12-hour or 24-hour clock (see Setup). Pay close attention to AM and PM
(12:00 AM is midnight).
