Make Overtime Plans¶

Making overtime plans helps the enterprises take the initiative in coordinating resources to complete, arrange, assign tasks as well as preparing all conditions to support employees during overtime. In the Viindoo system, overtime plan records the number of overtime hours of employees (planned and actual) and is the basis for calculating the paid amount to employees.

Depending on the organizing way, enterprises can flexibly use this feature:

Automatic: The overtime plans are gathered from approved Overtime requests. See details about access right at Access rights configuration using Approval module.
Manual: If you want to apply overtime plans without employees’ requests, you can make plans at this step without making Overtime requests.
