Overtime

The Overtime request lets employees file hours worked beyond their regular schedule for management approval. The card lives on the top of the Requests dashboard and exposes four actions: New, My, Pending, All.

Approver actions

Approvers see two extra queues on the Overtime card: Pending and All.

Approve or disapprove

  1. Requests → Overtime → Pending — lists every team OT request awaiting action.

  2. Review each entry:

    • Employee name and department
    • Date, Duration, OT Start / End
    • Actual In / Actual Out (from attendance system)
    • Reason
  3. Tap Approve (green) or Disapprove (red).

Employee Overtime — Approve / Disapprove with Actual In / Out

Actual In / Actual Out come from the attendance module and help the approver sanity-check whether the claimed OT hours match the employee's actual clock-in.
