Make a Correction to a Punch on the Time Card From a Browser (see 1:40 in video)

Benefit to The OnTheClock User

Correct a punch before time cards go to payroll.  If the punch is incorrect because let’s say PTO was used or should’ve been used in conjunction with worked hours, then you will need to have two entries for the particular day.  One for PTO (see 4:15 in the video) and one for the hours actually worked. Do not try to edit existing to accommodate two types of punches or hours.

If the correction to be made is to edit a single punch or time, follow below

1. Log in as the administrator.
2. Click “Time Cards” at the top of the screen.
3. Click on the date of the punch to be edited in the time card under the appropriate employee.
4. You may then adjust the hours in the punch or the “Override Hours” section.
5. Click “Save”.

If the correction to be made is because an employee worked a partial day and the rest was PTO, follow below

Do not try to edit a single entry to show both types of hours for that day, you will see the hours are overridden and crossed out.

1. Log in as the administrator.
2. Click “Time Cards” at the top of the screen.
3. Clicking on “Add Day”, enter the hours in the appropriate box for the missing hours. Example:  If there are regular worked hours already on the time card, leave that as is, and enter PTO with this step.  The end result is that you will have two entries with the same date on the time card. One entry will be regular worked hours, and the second entry will be the PTO hours, whether it’s vacation, sick, personal, etc.  
4. Click the “Save” button.
5. If this is done correctly, you will see two entries listed for the same day.
