Approve, part-approve or decline the time someone worked past their hours, before it counts as overtime.

  1. Go to ConsoleAttendanceOvertime.

  2. Under Waiting, check each day's shift or standard day, first clock-in, last clock-out and the extra time.
  3. Select Approve to count it all, or Approve part and choose the Minutes to approve.
  4. To refuse it, select Decline and write a Reason they'll see.

Good to Know

  • Extra time waits here only while your rules say Overtime counts only once it's approved.
  • Tick several days and approve them together. Undo puts a decision back to waiting.
  • Decided shows who decided, when, and their note.
  • You decide for your own team and for people at the sites where you manage attendance. Nobody decides their own, except Owners.
  • Line managers see Team overtime, and can decide on their phone in Agoo Workspace.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • "Someone else decides this one". The person isn't in your team or at your sites.
  • A timesheet won't approve. Extra time waiting holds it up. Decide it first.
  • The decision is refused. The day is in an approved timesheet. Reopen it first.
