We all know that keeping track of which overtime rules apply to each project can be tedious at best. Within Raken, we’ve made it possible to create custom rules that can apply to as many or as few projects as you like. Below are the steps for setting it up, along with a short video. This feature is available to all users on Professional, Performance or Enterprise plans.


To create new overtime rules, you should:

1. Navigate to the 'Company' tab --> 'Production' --> 'Overtime rules'

2. Name your overtime rule and select if it's daily, weekly, or both daily and weekly

3. Input your overtime rules and hour assignment accordingly (example: first 8 hours daily for RT and next 4 hours daily for OT, with the rest going to DT)

4. Once you hit save, the overtime rules will be available to activate on either a project-by-project basis, or you can add them to a template and apply to all or select projects

Once this is active, when inputting time cards, when your team selects "allocate hours" it will take the hours input and apply them in accordance to your overtime rules.
