Counters Operations

Here you can link the counters to a counter operation or make simple mathematical calculations between counters: add, subtract, multiply or divide different time and/or count items.

Predefined formulas

Predefined formulas are fixed counter operations that can be only used once with maximum 5 counters. These are:

· Absence hours: Used with T counters. It calculates how much an employee still has to work in a day, core time minus unpaid break time;

· Early leave: Used with T counters. It calculates how much time an employee was missing in a day due to early leave, regular time minus core time;

· Interrupt: Used with T counters. It takes into consideration only the bookings MC linked to the absences with type "Interruption" or "Any interruption" in definition. It calculates the time of interruption.

· Late arrival: Used with T counters. It calculates how much time an employee was missing in a day due to late arrival, regular time minus core time;

· Non authorised overtime: Used with T counters. It calculates how much unauthorized overtime an employee has;

· No. of days absence: Used with C counters. It counts the days of absence and it takes into consideration only absences with "Count as normal day" in definition;

· No. of days holiday: Used with C counters. It counts the non-working days;

· No. of days worked: Used with C counters. It counts the number of days worked;

· No. of times early leave: Used with C counters. It counts the number of times with early leave;

· No. of times interrupt: Used with C counters. It counts the number of absences with "Interruption" or "Any interruption" in definition;

· No. of times late arrival: Used with C counters. It counts the number of late arrivals.

If the option Use 'Standard Start-End' instead of 'Core Start-End' for early leave/late arrival calculation is put on YES in Settings - System - tab Application config., the formulas will refer to standard start/end time instead of core time.

Customable formulas

There are six different formulas that can be used to make calculations with T counters:

· Add

· Subtract

· Multiply

· Divide

· Minimum

· Maximum.

These formulas can be used in maximum 200 counter operations, e.g. create a calculation with counter T3 and T4, the result of this calculation is saved in counter T5.

Following regular counters have a code when used in calculations:

Normtime A:	?NRM
Start coretime:	?CRF
End coretime:	?CRT
Standard start:	?STS
Standard end:	?STE
Hours wage:	?HWG (see Hour Wage C Counters)
Start first break:	B0F (0 = NOUGHT)
End first break:	B0T (0 = NOUGHT)
Balance:	BAL
Regular:	REG
Effective:	EFF
