Step 1.
To activate an automatic lunch minutes deduction, you
must open an individual's Employee Setup file.
Log in and begin by going to the Main Menu.
Select Employee Setup from the Main Menu
(as seen in the illustration, below).

Step 2. Select an employee from the
provided list or click the corresponding
individual check-boxes to work with multiple
employees. Utilize the button tool "Work
with selected employees" found
below the employee list (see illustration
below).
Employee Setup:
Select Employee to Edit screen
Selecting the employee will offer the needed
individual's employee setup file where you will
notice the Auto Lunch "Minutes" and
Auto Lunch "After _____ Hours" entry boxes (see
illustration below). Note, once again, the
amount of CONSECUTIVE hours worked should be
specified; meaning, if an employee clocks out
for any reason, the hours will be reset before
the deduction is made, which may demand a manual
lunch deduction entry (see the
Editing a Time Card "How
To" for further details.)

Step 3. When your entry has been
completed save the entries and the Auto
Lunch Minutes will be activated.

Example |
|
An employee awarded 30 minutes after 4 hours
may clock out after 4 hours and 5 minutes
and will be deducted 30 minutes, plus the
time out. They may return for another 4
hours and yet another deduction is made.
Solution: 30 minutes after 6 hours.
As a result, if an employee clocks out
around lunch, after 4 or 5 hours worked, the
6 hour requirement will restart and the
automatic deduction will not be made. It
will deduct if and only if the employee does
not clock out before the 6 hour requirement. |

|
Additional Help |
|
To
prevent a double deduction for employees who
are awarded an auto-lunch deduction, and
clock out occasionally for an extended
lunch, set the required amount of hours
higher. |
