If you have access to PayControl or use WebClock, you can take advantage of Punch Records, now with an updated Interface! Once labor for a day has been received, you can either edit existing Punch Records, or create a new one from scratch.
Punch Records are found in the Staff tab, under the Punch Records sub-tab.
At a glance, you will be able to view hours, overtime, tips, other pay, and estimated costs for each employee. At the top of the page you will find that information totaled for all employees in view.
Use the arrows or click the dates to navigate to the correct time frame. Clicking on the date range will allow you to select from previous pay periods. Clicking View by Date Range will allow you to select date ranges outside those listed. You can select View by Pay Period to go back to the list of pay periods to select from.
Filters, Search, and Default View
Use the Filter options to narrow Punch Records by Jobs, Exceptions, Needs Review, or Edited Punches. You can also use the Search bar to quickly find a specific employee’s record.
HotSchedules now lets you set a default view for Punch Records:
-
By Day – shows the previous day’s records, with arrows to move between days.
-
By Pay Period – opens the current pay period, with standard navigation.
Your selection is saved to your profile and stays in place until you change it, making it faster to review time records.
