Same pay period types but pay periods start at different times, i.e. one group of employees are on a weekly pay period that starts on Wednesday and another group of employees are on a weekly pay period that starts on Monday. Different overtime rules, i.e. one group of employees accumulate weekly overtime after 40 hours per week and another group of employees accumulate weekly overtime after 37 hours and 30 minutes per week.
Caution! You should only use multiple pay classes when necessary as identified above. You cant edit timecards or report or export data across multiple pay classes, you can only edit timecards, report or export data on one pay class at a time.

When should I change the Maximum Work Day Length default setting of 14 hours?
This setting should only be changed from the default of 14 hours if employees are expected to work more than 14 hours in a day. You can change the Maximum Work Day Length in the Setup tab | Pay Class button | Advanced tab. Changing this setting will apply to all employees, if you need to override this setting for a single employee do so at the Setup tab | Employees button | Advanced tab or adjust the Maximum Work Day Length by day in the timecard. Note: Normally, you should leave this setting at its default of 14:00 hours.
Should I change the Maximum Hours Out to Start a New Shift setting?
No, typically you should leave this parameter at the default setting of 3:00 hours. This setting allows employees who are working split shifts or work for a few hours and then leave but come back later and work another shift on the same

day to accumulate time without you having to make adjustments in the timecard. The default for this setting is 3:00 hours which means if an employee punches In and works for a period of time and then punches Out to leave and remains punched Out for at least 3 hours and then on the same day comes back to work and punches In, PayClock will automatically extend the work day by another 14 hours.
When should I enable the Apply Hours to Date of Out Punch setting?
If your company payroll policy requires that the accumulated time be applied to the day where the out punch falls you should enable this option. Typically this setting would only be used when an employee is working a shift that crosses midnight and you want the total hours to be accumulated on the day of the out punch. For example, you would enable this option if you have a night shift which starts at 11:00pm and ends at 7:30am. The pay period starts on Monday and you want the Sunday night shift to calculate as Monday which is actually the first shift of the pay period.

Breaks
Breaks can be punched, automatically deducted or a combination of both, they can also be unpaid or paid. Breaks are applied to shifts, for example, you have a shift that starts at 7:30am and ends at 4:00pm with a 30 minute punched unpaid break that can be taken between 11:30am and 2:00pm. After defining the breaks, assign them to shifts. Employees punch for this break - Select this option to define a punched break for the shift. Break window: (select to start break after a specific time or a duration of hours) Time of Day - Select this option if you wish to set an actual time window for when the punched break can be started. For example the employee can punch out to start their break from 11:30am to 2:00pm. Duration - Select this option if you wish to set a time duration window for when the punched break can be started. For example the employee can punch out to start their break between 4:00 and 6:00 hours after the start of the shift. At The break may be started between __:__am/pm and __:__am/pm, enter the earliest and latest time a person can punch out for a break. Note: This setting will display if Time is selected for the Break window option. At The break may be started between __:__ and __:__ (Hrs:Mins) after start of shift., enter the window of time that the break can be started, i.e. 4:00 hours and 6:00 hours. Note: This setting will display if Duration is selected for the Break window option At The break is normally __:__ long but may be up to __:__ (Hrs:Mins) long., enter the ideal length of the break for the first value and the maximum length of the break for the second value. Note: If the maximum length which is the second field is exceeded the punches will not be considered as break punches but as normal In and Out punches. For example, a paid break is defined as between 30 minutes (the ideal break length) and 45 minutes (the maximum length). An employee takes 30 minutes for the break; the entire 30 minutes will be paid because the ideal break length was not exceeded. If the employee takes 45 minutes, 30 minutes will be paid and 15 minutes will be docked because they went over the ideal break of 30 minutes. If the employee takes 1 hour, they will be docked the entire 1 hour because they went over the maximum length of 45 minutes which cancelled the break. At This break is paid, select this option if you do not want to deduct time for the break. Then entire duration set for the Length will be paid.

Shifts
Shifts identify when an employee is expected to punch In or Out and how to calculate the punches. For each shift rule, you can define the start and end of the shift as well as the break(s) associated with the shift. For example, you have a shift that starts at 7:30am and ends at 4:00pm with a 30 minute punched break. After defining the shift rules you then can assign them to the employees. Shifts also allow you to use revision zones and lockout zones if you wish.
Shift Type
This section allows you to define the parameters around the start and end of the shift. Shift with In and Out revision - Select this option if you want to use both the In and Out revision zones.

At Step 2 select the finger to enroll by clicking on the graphic. Note: Employees should enroll their dominant finger. To identify the dominant finger ask the employee which finger they use to point with, this is the dominant finger. The employee should be ready when the terminal displays the prompt for the employee to place their finger on the sensor. Note: The employee will have to scan their finger four different times. Each good scan of the finger will cause a circle to change color on Step 2, with a successful registration all four circles will change color and then the message Enrollment was Successful will display. Note: The employee will have to repeat the registration process if the sensor did not read their fingerprint.
At Step 3 select the security level to use for this employee and click Next. Note: The default setting is Medium. With the employee standing at the ready, click the Begin Verification button.

Important Note: Employees are automatically assigned to the TS100 on which they were enrolled. Helpful Hints o Always place the finger flat and comfortably resting entirely on the sensor surface. Sometimes twisting the finger slightly or moving it forward and back slightly can trigger the TS100 to scan the finger. Be comfortable; do not try to use a finger that causes the hand to be at an uncommon angle. Use the finger that is most convenient and most comfortable. During enrollment, the employee should do his best to provide consistent finger placement: THIS IS CRITICAL. Good enrollment enables the TS100 to provide the best matching possible during daily use, and thus, the enrollment process is one of the most important steps.
The TS100 will scan the finger and compare it to the stored fingerprints. When a match is found, a record of the punch is added to the database, and the display will show in big block text IN or OUT. Next, a verification screen will display with the employees last name and the total hours for the pay period. Helpful Hints o The employee must wait until the TS100 shows Remove Finger on the display before lifting their finger off of the sensor. Removing the finger to soon may result in the punch not being accepted and added to the database.

PC600 Terminal
Reliability, functionality and ease of use are trademarks of the PayClock terminals. With the PC600 terminal, employees can use a badge or PIN using the touch-panel to punch in and out, view messages or benefit time balances its that simple. The PayClock software and PC600 terminals are the perfect solution for businesses that want to track employee time and automate payroll. The PC600 terminal connects to your network for communications with the time and attendance software. The terminal utilizes Windows CE and a touch-panel display for inputting data by employees, supervisors or administrators. The PC600 terminal validates that the employee is in the database before recording the transaction. The PC600 can operate in Live Sync (online mode). When operating with Live Sync enabled (online mode), communications with the pc are in real-time. For example when an employee punches at the PC600 it is immediately added to the database and is available for viewing or editing. Another example is if the employee does an inquiry, the PC600 will initiate communications with the database and retrieve the inquiry information and display it on the screen. When operating with Live Sync disabled (offline mode), all transactions are held in the terminals memory until the terminal is polled, then the data will be added to the database The PC600 terminal offers a large color LCD touch-panel that displays employee information along with an audio prompt. Upon a successful transaction live sync enabled, the display will show the employees name, total worked time, In / Out status and an audio/text prompt. Otherwise with live sync disabled, the display will show the employees name.

Glossary of Terms
24-Hour Time
The time displays in military time (00:00-23:59) instead of 12-hour am and pm time (12:00-11:59 am and 12:0011:59pm). Examples: 3:00am in 24-hour time is 03:00; 3:00pm in 24-hour time is 15:00.
Active Employee
Active employees are employees who are punching the terminal. You can maintain employees in PayClock at the Setup tab | Employees button.
Approved
After you have finished your edits of an employees timecard you can check the Approved option, this locks the employees timecard and wont allow for any more edits. If for some reason you need to make another edit simply uncheck the Approved option. The Approved column can be used as a progress indicator when processing payroll. At the end of the pay period, you make your edits, and then check the approved option for each employee as you finish their edits. When finished verify that all of the employees have the Approved option checked which indicates you are finished.
Beginning of Day
PayClock by default starts the beginning of the day at 12:00am. When the employees first punch of the day is registered, it will be applied to the day on which the punch happened. For example if the employees first punch on Monday was 6:00am it will display in the timecard as 6:00am Monday. Changing the beginning of day parameter causes the day to shift ahead from the 12:00am default point. For example the beginning of day is set to 9:00am, a 6:00am punch is registered on Monday, the punch will be calculated as a Sunday punch because the day has been shifted ahead and Monday doesnt actually start until 9:00am
Break Length
This setting determines how long the employee is expected to take for their break. The break can either be punched or auto-deducted.
Concurrent User
When more than one PayClock user is logged into the PayClock software at the same time.
Department Transfer
A department transfer is when an employee stops working in one department and then begins working in another department. The reason for a transfer is you may want to track the time that an employee works in each department for labor reporting or maybe wage differentials.
This mouse pointer identifies that you are over an area where you can assign the shift. This mouse pointer identifies that you are not over an area where you can assign the shift.
Employee List
The employee list appears below the ribbon bar when the Timecards tab is selected. Along with the list of employees, you will see the pay period summary data for each employee. This list is used to select employees and pay periods, which then allows you to edit their employee information or timecard data. To edit employee information, right click on the employee in the list and then select Edit this Employee from the pop-up menu. To open an employees timecard, click on the employee in the list and their timecard will open.
Filter
A filter helps you to narrow down a list by showing only the items you want to see. For example, if you filter your list of employees by Shipping, your list will only show the employees assigned to the Shipping department.
Flexible Shift
A flexible shift starts with the employees first punch of the day; the duration is defined by the Shift Length setting. A Flexible shift can be configured on the Shift Properties tab of the Shifts button at the Setup tab of the ribbon bar. Example: A flexible shift was created and the shift length is set to 9 hours. A one hour punched break was assigned to the flexible shift. Jane Doe works a flex-time schedule which allows her to start work at different times each morning. The 9 hour flexible schedule was assigned to Jane Doe.
Jane Does first punch on Monday was at 7:30am, her shift is expected to end at 4:30pm. The first punch of 7:30am starts the shift and the shift length is 9 hours which sets the end of the shift to 4:30pm. Jane Does first punch on Tuesday was at 10:00am, her shift is expected to end at 7:00pm. The first punch of 10:00am starts the shift and the shift length is 9 hours which sets the end of the shift to 7:00pm.
Guaranteed Time
This option is used to give a person credit for more hours than actually worked. Example: You have a policy at your company that if an employee works at least 7 hours they are paid for 8 hours. By setting up a guaranteed minimum, the workers will be paid for 8 hours even though they only worked for 7 hours. However, if the workers are worked for 9 hours, they will be paid for the 9 hours that they worked. In this example, you would have 7 Worked Hours to Qualify and 8 Minimum Paid Hours.
Inactive Employee
Inactive employees are employees you want to keep in the PayClock system but you dont want there badge to be active at the terminal. For example, you might want to make an employee inactive when she goes on maternity leave or when a seasonal worker is off-season. You cannot reassign an inactive employees badge. You can only reuse a badge number if you mark the employee as Terminated. Inactive employees stay in the system, but cannot punch the terminal. You can still report and export on inactive employees. Note: After making an employee inactive, make sure you update the terminal, if you dont the badge will still be accepted by the terminal.
Live Sync
The PC600 can operate in online or offline mode. When operating in online or live sync mode, communications with the pc are in real-time. For example when an employee punches at the PC600 it is immediately added to the database and is available for viewing or editing. Another example is the PC600 will update itself if an edit is made to an employee in PayClock such as a name change. When operating in offline mode, all communications with the PC600 have to be initiated from the PayClock software, such as polling or updating.
assume that a new shift will be started. Note: If the new shift is started within the same day all of the punches will be calculated on the day of the first In punch. Example: Sams first In punch was on Monday at 7:30am. He worked a normal shift and punch Out at 4:00pm. Sam was asked to come back and work the night shift. When Sam punched In for the night shift at 8:00pm the software knew that a new shift was starting because 3 hours had elapsed since the last out punch. The Maximum Hours Out to Start a New Shift rule was activated and the day was extended by an additional 14 hours. Both shifts were calculated and the employee had a total of 16 hours for Monday. Note: If the new shift is started after midnight the punches will be calculated on the day of the punches. When should I set the Maximum Hours Out to Start a New Shift option? This setting is typically used if you have employees that may work a double shift. The software will automatically detect if the workday needs to be extended so that the employee punches will be calculated. Note: You would want to set the option to an amount of time that will not conflict with any punched breaks.
Missed In Exception
PayClock flags this exception by looking for a missing In punch.
Off Shift
When an employee does not come in to work, he is considered "off" for the day. Note: Assign an Off schedule to the day(s) an employee is not scheduled to work.
Open Shift
An open shift allows PayClock to define the start and end of the work day for everyone in a pay class. Employees have an open shift if they do not have a shift rule assigned. An employee's open shift starts with his/her first punch of the day. The open shift settings are configured on the Advanced tab of the Pay Class button at the Setup tab of the ribbon bar. Example: The beginning of day setting is 12:00 midnight and the maximum work day length is set to 14 hours. Jane Does first punch this morning was at 7:30am. Using the settings above, PayClock defines Janes open shift to start at 7:30am and end by 9:30pm. So, Jane can punch any time today until 9:30pm, which is 14 hours after her first punch of 7:30am without an exception being generated. Note: PayClock allows you to override the starting time of the open shift. This allows PayClock to start the day before midnight for the open shift.
Pay Code
Pay Codes are accumulators or categories that collect either time or dollar amounts. You can change the pay rates or set non-work hours to count toward overtime.
Rate Modifier
PayClock uses the rate modifier to multiply an employees wages. For example, if overtime is paid at time and half, set the overtime modifier to 1.50 (1 and times the base pay).
Registration
A punch at the clock or a punch added from the software.
Ribbon Bar
The PayClock Ribbon Bar has replaced the typical menus and toolbars. This new bar, which is located at the top of the screen, allows PayClock to present the functions you need on a set of organized tabs. The tabs are; Start Page, Timecards, Scheduling, Reports, Terminal Manager and Setup.
Add Shift - This menu item allows you to select a shift from the available list to assign to the selected date(s) or day(s). Selecting New will allow you to create an on-the-fly shift that will be used once for that one date or day for that one employee. Delete Shift - This menu item allows you to remove the shift assignment from the selected date(s) or day(s). Add Non-Work Time - This menu item allows you to post non-work time to the selected date(s) or day(s). Make Recurring - This menu item allows you to set a schedule assignment to recur for the selected day every week. For example, if you have a shift assigned on Wednesday August 18 and the Make Recurring option is selected, the shift will be assigned to every Wednesday not the 18th of every month. Note: The recurrence is base on the DAY not the date. Remove Recurrence - Select this menu item to cancel the recurrence of the selected shift assignment. View All - This menu item will display a coverage chart for all employees for the selected single date or single day. This will allow you to determine if you have too much or not enough labor coverage for the selected single date or single day.
Rounding
Rounding adjusts a punch to an even increment of time. With rounding, there must be a setting that triggers the punch to adjust forward or backward - this is the break point. Example: 1/4 Hour - 7 min. break point punch rounding is selected. (15 min. round with 7 min. breakpoint) An employee punches at 8:09, since :09 is after the 7-minute break point, the punch rounds to 8:15. An employee punches at 8:06, since :06 is before the 7-minute break point, the punch rounds to 8:00.
An employee punches at 8:07, since :07 is at the 7-minute break point, the punch rounds to 8:15.
Shift
A shift rule contains the settings that identify a work day for employees. In PayClock a shift rule allows you to define the start and end of the work day as well as any breaks or meals that would be taken. Note: If you dont assign shift rules to employees they will be on an open shift.
Terminated Employee
Terminated employees are employees you want to keep in the PayClock system but you want to reuse their badge for another employee, typically a terminated employee will not be returning to work. Terminated employees stay in the system, but cannot punch the terminal, their badge number will be reset to 0 (zero). You can still report and export on terminated employees. Note: After making an employee terminated, make sure you update the terminal, if you dont the badge will still be accepted by the terminal.
User
A user is a person who logs in and accesses the PayClock software. After logging in the user can only access the parts and functions of the software that were set up for the user profile assigned to their user account. The user account and access rights are set up by the PayClock administrator.
User Profile
A user profile defines which sections or programs a user is authorized to use in PayClock. There are 2 default user access profiles; Administrator and Limited.
Verification Method
Typically for a normal employee you would select Face recognition, for a temporary employee select Card recognition, for higher security select either Pin and Face or Card and Face recognition.
