Overtime approval
If the labor rules have Requires approval enabled, each day with overtime generates an approval request. Until it is approved, that overtime is not paid: the suggested amount and the payroll attendance review only include approved overtime minutes.Approval statuses

Decide in bulk
Check the boxes of several days (for one or several employees) and use Approve selected or Reject selected. In bulk, each day’s full overtime is approved; to approve a portion use Decide on the day. Clear selection unchecks everything. If any day cannot be decided, the rest are processed anyway and you are told which ones failed.Who can approve
- Company administrators, for any employee.
- The employee’s direct manager (Manager field on their record), only for their direct reports. A manager only sees their team’s approvals in the list.
- Nobody can decide their own overtime, even if they are an administrator.
Important rules
- Days included in a processed or paid payroll (locked) can no longer be decided.
- If the attendance of an already decided day changes and the calculated overtime is different, the approval goes back to Pending with the warning Overtime changed after the decision: requires new approval. If the minutes do not change, the decision is kept.
- If the day no longer has overtime, or the rules stop requiring approval, the approval disappears.
- The Overtime day and Overtime night columns always show the calculated overtime; what is payable depends on the approval.
