Scenarios

• Clocking in early
  An employee is scheduled to work from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, and the Clocking In early (Minutes) Schedule shift rule is enabled for 10 minutes. If the employee clocks in at 7:51 am, the punch will round to 8:00 am. If the employee clocks in at 7:45 am, the punch will remain at 7:45 am. The same logic can be applied to the other three options.
