Notes on overtime

With overtime turned on, hours beyond 40 in the week are paid at 1.5×. Overnight shifts are handled automatically — if the end time is earlier than the start, we roll it to the next day. Enter unpaid breaks in minutes so lunch isn't counted as worked time.

How it’s calculated

Daily hours = (clock-out − clock-in − break); overnight shifts roll to the next day. Pay = regular × rate + overtime × 1.5 × rate (over 40 hours/week).

Worked example

Five 9-to-5 days with 30-minute lunches total 37.5 hours; at $20/hr that is $750 of gross pay.

Common mistakes

  • Forgetting to subtract unpaid breaks.
  • Mishandling overnight shifts that cross midnight.

Where it is used

  • Totaling a weekly timesheet and pay.
  • Checking overtime over 40 hours.

Frequently asked questions

Does it handle overnight shifts?

Yes. If clock-out is before clock-in, it assumes the shift crossed midnight and adds 24 hours.

How is overtime calculated?

Optionally, anything over 40 hours in the week is paid at time-and-a-half. Some states also have daily overtime rules — check yours.

Are breaks paid?

Enter unpaid break minutes and they're subtracted. Leave at 0 if breaks are paid.
