    Punch Edits

    Article summary

    Admin Users have the ability to add, edit, and remove punches for their Employees directly from the Daily Sales Summary. To help determine which punches need to be added or edited, Users can filter the 'Labor' tab of the DSS for large variances between the hours scheduled and hours worked for all Employees.

    Once punches are added, edited, and/or removed, an Audit Log can be requested and will be located on each Employee Punch sidesheet to show which User(s) made edits to the punch as well as the date, time, and updates that were made. The original and edited punches for a selected date range can also be reviewed on the Punch Audit Report. Punch edits made in R365 will be retained when the DSS is repolled.


    Security

    Punch Edit Permissions are found in the Permission Tree as follows:

    • Labor

      • Punch Edits

        • Create/Edit/Delete Punch Edit Reasons

        • Add/Edit/Delete Labor Punches

        • Import Tip Template

        • Lock/Unlock Labor Punches 


    These permissions can be added to custom user roles or individual users. The Permission Access report can be used to determine which user roles or users already have these permissions assigned. For more information, see User Setup and Security.

    Punch Edit Audit Log

    The Punch Edit Audit Log must be requested for it to be enabled in your database. Contact R365 Support in order to have this feature enabled.


    Each Punch Edit's Audit Log lists any edits made to the punch alongside its original details, if applicable. It also lists Punch Edit Acknowledgements made by Employees. Admin Users can review this log to see the updates and reasons selected for the change before approving the DSS.

    Original Punches and their edits as well as new punches will be listed in chronological order based on their Clock In and Out Times.

    • Added / Edited Punches - Punches that are added or edited will list the User, fields edited and their values, and the reason(s) for the change. This will also show the date and time that the edit was made

    • Original Punches - Punches that come in from the DSS will list their original details and the date and time they were created

    • Punch Edit Acknowledgements - Once a Punch Edit is acknowledged by an Employee, the date and time of the acknowledgment


    Cross-Day Shifts

    If an Employee's Actual Shift crosses the Business Day for their Location, it will be marked with an 'Alert' icon.

    When a Shift crosses days, it is split into two parts for Labor Reporting. The portion of the Shift associated with the selected DSS only shows the Clock In and Clock Out times associated with the Business Day for that DSS. Expanding the Shift will show the times associated with the other portion of the Shift.

    When editing a Cross-Day Shift, both portions of the Shift will be opened for editing. The punches added by the system at the cross-over time for the day cannot be edited. The selected Reason(s) will be applied to both portions of the Shift.

    On the line for the portion of the shift associated with the DSS's Business Day, the following will be editable:

    • Job Code

    • 'Clock In' (for the first day of a Cross-Day Shift) or 'Clock Out' (for the second day of a Cross-Day Shift)

    • Job Rate

    On the line for the portion of the shift associated with the DSS for the 'Prior Business Day' or 'Next Business Day', either the 'Clock In' (for the first day of a Cross-Day Shift) or 'Clock Out' (for the second day of a Cross-Day Shift) can be edited.

    A Cross-Day Shift cannot be created when adding Shifts. Each portion of a Cross-Day Shift will need to be added separately to the associated DSS as a new Shift.`
