how to configure Synegy Workforce to Allocate Swipe to previous date

AHR 0000-0830 has the following night shift configuration

"Allocate Transactions to Previous/Next Day" works as follows:

  • Given the swipe on 04/02/2023 00:04
  • When there are no swipes for 04/02/2023
  • When there is a swipe on 03/02/2023
  • When Allocate Transactions to Previous/Next Day is set for daily template on 03/02/2023
  • Then time of first swipe on 03/02/2023 will be taken time of current swipe (04/02/2023 00:04) will be compared to first swipe on 03/02/2023 + value Allocate Transactions to Previous/Next Day if in the range, then 04/02/2023 00:04 will be allocated to 03/02/2023

Example:

Existing Swipes:

  • 03/02/2023 22:00
  • 03/02/2023 23:30
  • 03/02/2023 23:45

Allocate Transactions to Previous/Next Day for daily template on 03/02/2023 is 14:00

new swipe: 04/02/2023 00:04

Calculation:

  • 03/02/2023 22:00 + 14:00 = 04/02/2023 12:00
  • 04/02/2023 12:00 > 04/02/2023 00:04
  • 04/02/2023 00:04 will be allocated to 03/02/2023

in the current case, there were no swipes on 03/02/2023. Therefore, swipe was allocated on the same date.

To make the provided example work for the customer, Night Shift End Time should be used.

Night Shift End Time works as follows:

  • Given the swipe on 04/02/2023 00:04
  • When Night Shift End Time set for daily template on 03/02/2023
  • Then No matter if there are any swipes on 03/02/2023 or 04/02/2023 if time of swipe on 04/02/2023 is less than Night Shift End Time on 03/02/2023 swipe will be allocated to 03/02/2023

Example:

Night Shift End Time for daily template on 03/02/2023 is 14:00

new swipe: 04/02/2023 00:04

Calculation:

  • 00:04 < 14:00
  • 04/02/2023 00:04 will be allocated to 03/02/2023

Please advise the customer to adjust the configuration (use Night Shift End Time instead of Allocate Transactions to Previous/Next Day) and add the given examples to KB.
