How To Set Up Time Restrictions Between Employee Punches In UKG Ready

For any HR team, ensuring accurate employee timekeeping goes beyond simply recording punches. Forgotten clock-ins and outs can create a domino effect of errors, where missed punches can mean opposite actions to the system – leading to payroll discrepancies, compliance risks, and administrative headaches. Fortunately, CloudApper hrPad for UKG Ready can help prevent these errors by setting up time restrictions – streamlining the process for a smoother timekeeping experience, and reducing losses.

The Dangers of Punch Omissions

Let’s paint a familiar picture: An employee sprints out the door at the end of their shift, forgetting to clock out. While seemingly harmless, this simple misstep can trigger a chain reaction of errors. Typically, any HCM system interprets the next day’s clock-in as a clock-out, leading to inaccurate overtime calculations and potential payroll issues. This situation highlights the need for time restrictions, acting as guardrails to prevent misinterpretations and maintain data integrity. As mentioned, CloudApper hrPad can help UKG Ready users with this – more on that later.

The Benefits of Setting Up Time Restrictions

Implementing time restrictions offers several advantages:

• Preventing Double Punches: Restrict punches within a reasonable timeframe after previous entries, eliminating the possibility of recording the same action twice.
• Minimizing Missed Punches: Set minimum and maximum allowable gaps between punches, prompting employees to correct omissions before leaving the workplace.

• Ensuring Compliance: Adhere to labor regulations regarding work hours by setting limits on maximum consecutive hours and minimum break times.
• Reducing Payroll Discrepancies: Accurate punch data translates to accurate payroll calculations, saving time and resources spent correcting errors.
