Bloomily stores regular, overtime and total hours. Calculation depends on the organization’s configured rules and the entries being recalculated.

1. Read the configured rules

Open Staff & setup → Pay period settings → Edit settings → Advanced calculation rules. Review weekly overtime, daily overtime, thresholds and Time rounding.

The values shown are this example’s settings, not a universal policy.

2. Understand the calculation

Elapsed clock time is rounded if configured, applicable unpaid breaks are deducted, and regular/overtime hours are allocated. Enabled daily overtime is applied before the remaining weekly regular-hour excess is moved to overtime.

3. Review the whole workweek

Check all relevant days, including a workweek that crosses a pay-period boundary. Recalculation is scoped to the selected period, so do not assume a partial-week export establishes the complete weekly result.

4. Check the export split

Payroll summary CSV separates regular, overtime and double-overtime columns. Detailed CSV combines overtime and double overtime in its Overtime hours column. Verify the final classifications with payroll.

Before you finish

  • Settings shown are examples. Use your organization’s agreed policies and verify the final hours with the person responsible for payroll.

  • The presence of settings or double-overtime columns is not a guarantee of jurisdiction-specific wage-rule compliance. The current recalculation does not automatically allocate double overtime.
