4-4  Time Guardian v4.0 User’s Guide 
Note: Placing a checkmark in front of both of these options will have Time Guardian calculate 
Overtime based on the hours entered in Daily Overtime, and then the hours entered in 
Weekly Overtime. 
•  Overtime is reset on a specific day of the week 
 This is especially useful if an employee is assigned to a Bi-Weekly, Semi-Monthly or 
Monthly Pay Period and the Overtime rules are based on a seven-day cycle starting on 
a specific day. 
Punch Rounding 
The Rounding Rules utilized in the Basic Setup Wizard were designed to simply accommodate 
a set variety of overtime rules. Depending on your setup, the following choices are available for 
punch rounding: 
•  No Rounding – default setting 
•  Nearest quarter (15/7) 
•  Nearest tenths (6/3) 
•  Split rounding – where IN punch will round to next 15 min, interval at 5 min. OUT 
punch will round to next 15 min, interval at 10 min. 
The Rounding for the Basic Setup Wizard can be seen in the following table:
