Overtime
Record the extra hours you have worked from the app and follow the status of each request.
With a Request for hours you tell your company that you worked extra hours on a given day. Once it is accepted, those hours are added to your hours balance and you can take them later as time off.
For the step-by-step, see Request overtime.
Where to request it
- From the menu: New request › Request for hours.
- From Calendar: the + button › Request for hours.
The form
New request for hours opens with these fields:
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Type of time request | The type of hours, from the types your company has created. Required. |
| Select a date | The day you worked the hours. Required. |
| Number of hours | Extra hours and minutes worked. By default, 01:00. |
| Remarks (optional) | A comment for whoever reviews the request. |
When you tap Request you will see Request sent.
Rules
- One request per day. If you already have an overtime request on that day, you will see There is already a request for hours for that day.
- Type and date are required. If either is missing, you will see Incomplete Form.
- Hours can be worth more than their length. Each overtime type has a multiplier set by your company. Once accepted, the hours you requested multiplied by that value are added to your balance. For example, with a multiplier of 1.5, two hours of overtime earn three hours of compensatory time.
- One balance per year. The hours are added to the balance of the year of the day worked.
Statuses
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Pending | Sent and waiting for an answer. |
| Accepted | Approved. The hours are added to your Total generated for the year. |
| Rejected | Turned down. It earns no hours. |
If an administrator accepts or rejects it, you get a notification on your phone: Overtime request accepted! or Overtime request rejected. If your supervisor answers, no notification is sent.
Your requests are in Calendar › Overtime › Worked, filtered by Year, with the Total hours for the year. Tap the total to see the breakdown by month. See Calendar.
Cancel a request
You can only cancel pending requests. In Calendar › Overtime › Worked, tap the bin icon on the request and confirm with Accept (Delete request for hours).
Who reviews it
An administrator from the admin panel, or your department supervisor from the admin panel or from Team in the app. See Approve or reject overtime.
