FAQs
Q: I updated the overtime type, but the time card hours aren't changing.
A: Whenever overtime types are changed, overtime needs to be recalculated. You can do this by visiting an employee's time card, selecting Edit next to a punch, and immediately Save. No changes are needed to the punch. You can also reach out to the Buddy Punch team for assistance with recalculating.
