Automatic Lunch Deduction

Bobby Gailey Head of Sales and Customer Success

TimeClick allows admins to setup automatic lunch deduction(ALD) for specific employees or to set it for all employees. There are two options for applying ALD within TimeClick. First, ALD can be applied after the days total hours exceeds the minimum number of hours worked. Second, ALD can be applied when a clock in and out period exceeds the minimum number of hours worked. Both options require the same setup.
