What MAJA does for you

  • The list shows Worked hrs, OT hrs, short hours (for example "−1h short") and whether the day is a public holiday.
  • On the payroll run, overtime on a normal day counts after 15 minutes above the employee's standard hours; hours between 10 pm and 4 am are night overtime; all hours on a rest day or a public holiday are overtime.
  • A day worked under the standard hours is deducted per hour at the run, unless the shortfall mode is Off.
  • A machine never overwrites a day you entered by hand.

Good to know

  • Filter the list by month and employee, and use Export for CSV or PDF.
  • Tick several rows to Delete selected.
  • Only employees with status Active appear in the employee list here.
