4-14 Time Guardian v4.0 User’s Guide
The concepts for meal rounding are the same as those used in the Rounding Rules tab. If
rounding is to be used for meal punches, enter the desired Unit and Point. You must also enter
the number of hours an employee must work before the meal period in the “Hours to work
before start of meal window” field.
For example, if the scheduled start time is 9:00 AM, and the Hours to work is set to 3:00, then
the meal window for this employee would start at 12:00 PM. If the scheduled start time is 7:00
AM, and the hours to work is set to 3:00, then the meal window for this employee would start at
10:00 AM.
Enter the Length of Meal window. This is the length of time between an employee's meal
punches that will be applied toward the meal rule.
Enter in the Meal Grace. This is the number of minutes that an employee can return late from a
meal before additional time is deducted.
