How 7shifts Handles Overnight Shifts That Cross Pay Periods

Question

Can an employee's overnight shift, which starts in one pay period and ends in the next, be fully allocated to the starting pay period in 7shifts without manual adjustment?

Answer

⚠️ Employees must not punch out for a break after midnight within the same overnight shift.

Yes. As long as an employee does not punch out for a break after midnight, 7shifts will allocate the entire overnight shift to the pay period in which the shift started. Pay periods act as "containers" or folders that determine which period the shift belongs to based on the start time.
