How are holiday hours calculated, displayed, and managed in Agendrix?

In Agendrix, holiday hours are tracked, displayed, and calculated using specific formats and systems. Understanding these processes can help you efficiently manage employee time approvals and troubleshoot related issues. Below is a detailed explanation addressing holiday hour formats, reporting nuances, and calculation dependencies.

Holiday Hour Formats: In-App vs. Reports

  • In-App Display: Holiday hours are displayed in an "Hours:Minutes" format (e.g., 10h37). - This format ensures clarity for time approval purposes as seen in scheduling and logged hours within the application.

  • Reports: When holiday hour data is pulled into reports, it is converted into fractional hours to standardize numerical representation. For instance, hours and minutes are represented as decimals (e.g., 10.62 for 10 hours and 37 minutes).

This dual-format system helps facilitate both time management within the app and accurate data processing in external use cases such as payroll reporting.

Calculation Dependency on Timesheets

Holiday hours for employees may display as "0" or remain uncalculated if specific timesheet dependencies are not met. Here’s how the system operates:

  1. Approval Requirement: All required timesheet entries within a pay period must be fully approved before the system can calculate and apply holiday hours accurately.

  2. Troubleshooting: If holiday hours are not appearing, check the employee’s timesheet for pending entries within the relevant pay period. Approve these entries to trigger the correct holiday hour calculations.

This workflow ensures that holiday hours are only calculated and applied after confirming all related attendance data.

Summary

Agendrix uses a structured approach for holiday hours involving:

  • Display in "Hours:Minutes" format within the app for operational clarity.

  • Conversion to fractional hours in reports for numerical consistency.

  • Dependency on approved timesheet entries for accurate holiday hour calculations.

By understanding these processes, you can effectively troubleshoot common issues, provide accurate holiday pay, and ensure consistent time tracking and approval. For further assistance, consult your timesheet and scheduling guidelines in the app or contact our support team for specific inquiries.
