Create an attendance policy

Open Time Tracking → Policies and select Add New Policy. The policy builder has seven steps.

1. Details — enter the policy name, description and time zone.
2. Attendance Cycle — choose the cycle range, cutoff and any custom cycle start.
3. Work Schedule — enable working days, enter shift times and hours, and configure unpaid-break deductions where needed.
4. Time Tracking — set maximum-hour limits and rules for overtime and undertime.
5. Comp Off — decide whether overtime can create compensatory leave, set full-day and half-day thresholds, and choose whether balances carry over.
6. Approval — choose the approval type, any custom approvers and who receives request notifications.
7. Manage Employees — apply the policy to everyone or define conditions and an effective date.

Select the final action to save the policy. It then appears in the Policies table.
