In the overtime feature, employees only enter the overtime and the overtime reduction, not their full working hours. So if an employee has worked their target working time of, for example, 8 hours, they do not need to enter anything. Timebutler maintains an overtime account for every employee and automatically offsets overtime and overtime reduction in it, together with the overtime balance carried over from the previous year.
To request overtime reduction, proceed as follows:
Employee users sign in to Timebutler and click Overtime > Overtime reduction on the left. Alternatively, you can enter overtime reduction like other absence entries, via the calendar view.
Managers and admins sign in to Timebutler and click Employees > Overtime > Overtime reduction at the top left. Alternatively, you can enter overtime reduction like other absence entries, via the calendar view. To enter your own overtime reduction, click My data > Overtime > Overtime reduction at the top left.
Approval of overtime reduction
An admin can decide whether overtime reduction requires approval or whether employees can enter it without approval. Read here how to define whether an absence type requires approval.
