With the overtime feature, employees only enter overtime and [overtime reduction(/overtime-management/overtime-and-time-off/overtime-reduction/), not full working hours. So if an employee has worked their target working time of, for example, 8 h, they do not need to make any entry. Timebutler maintains an [overtime account(/overtime-management/overtime-account/view-overtime-account/) for each employee and automatically accounts for overtime and overtime reduction in it, together with the overtime balance from the previous year.
To enter overtime, do the following:
Employee users sign in to Timebutler and click on the left on “Overtime > Enter overtime”. Alternatively, you can enter overtime like other absence entries [entered via the calendar view(/absence-management/enter-absences/enter-an-absence/).
Supervisors and admins sign in to Timebutler and click at the top left on “Employees > Overtime > Enter overtime”. Alternatively, you can enter overtime like other absence entries [entered via the calendar view(/absence-management/enter-absences/enter-an-absence/). To enter your own overtime, you can click at the top left on “My data > Overtime > Enter overtime”.
Overtime approval
Overtime entries do not require approval by default. You can configure that [overtime entries require approval(/overtime-management/overtime-and-time-off/overtime-requiring-approval/).
