Set up Punch Rounding in ProPunch

The punch rounding feature will impose a simple rounding rule on the punch times when calculating the total hours worked.  The values are rounded (up or down) to the nearest selected minute value, based on the selected breakpoint.

Note:

• When the All Punches, Except Lunch & Breaks option is enabled, both First In and Last Out options are automatically enabled.

To configure rounding, follow these steps:

1. Log in to the ProPunch application with an administrator profile.
2. Click on Company Setup >> Pay Calculations >> Rounding.
3. Round Punches
   • First In – Select this option to round the first IN punch of the day.
   • Last Out – Select this option to round the last OUT punch of the day.
   • All Punches, Except Lunch & Breaks – Select this option to round all IN/OUT punches, except punches associated with lunches and breaks.
   • Round To Increments, Rounding – Specify the rounding that should be applied.
4. Round Based on Shift
   • Round Start Time Based on Shift Start – Select this option to round the first IN punch of the day based on the employee’s assigned shift, i.e., first IN punch will be moved to Shift Start time if it falls within time frame Early IN to Late IN.
   • Round End Time Based on Shift End – Select this option to round the last OUT punch of the day based on the employee’s assigned shift, i.e., last OUT punch will be moved to Shift End time if it falls within time frame Early OUT to Late OUT.
5. Round Lunch & Breaks
   • Lunch, Round To – Select this option to round lunch punches based on the specified rounding.
   • Breaks, Round To – Select this option to round lunch punches based on the specified rounding.
