Standard daily time-card calculation. Subtract break minutes from total clock-time. For weekly aggregation with overtime tracking, use time-card-weekly.

Frequently asked

Are paid breaks subtracted?+
Only unpaid breaks. Most US workplaces: 30+ min lunch is unpaid; short coffee breaks are paid (don't subtract).
Overnight shift?+
Handled — if clock-out time-of-day is before clock-in, 24 hours is added.
Multiple breaks?+
Sum them and enter the total.
Decimal vs hh:mm?+
Decimal for payroll software, hh:mm for human reports. Both shown.
What if I forgot to clock out?+
Estimate based on usual schedule. Most time-card software lets you edit retroactively.
