Overtime requests

If your attendance group credits overtime automatically, you don't need to request it. Otherwise, request it after working the extra time.

Request overtime​

  1. Go to Overtime request and select Apply. Managers can apply for a team member.
  2. Choose the date and enter the pre-shift and/or post-shift overtime.
  3. Add a reason and submit.

Approve overtime​

  1. Go to Overtime request approve.
  2. Open the request. You can approve fewer minutes than requested by entering an approved start and end time, but not more.
  3. Approve or reject.
