Day-to-day use
Can I limit the credit of hours a worker builds up?
Yes. You can set a maximum credit that may build up, for example 16 hours. Beyond it, hours are no longer added to the balance: depending on your choice, they are lost or left for HR to settle.
- Setting: optional, in the counter rules (Schedules › Hours counters). It applies at all times, not only at the end of the period.
- Effect: a day that would exceed the maximum only adds the remaining margin. The surplus is shown as “Capped” in the counter details.
- Lost or to settle: tick “Hours beyond the maximum credit are lost” if your work rules provide for it; otherwise, they remain visible and to be settled by HR.
- Adjustments: an adjustment or an HR decision is never capped.
This cap is different from the maximum carry-over at the end of the period: the first limits the balance day to day, the second what moves from one period to the next. Both must match your work rules.
