Custom rounding of employees' time clock punches allows you to round timestamps to the nearest increment for simplicity of payroll calculations. 

When the nearest increment is set to 5 minutes, for example, clocking in at 11:03 AM would be recorded as 11:05 AM, and clocking out at 6:56 PM would be recorded as 6:55 PM.

When the nearest increment is set to 15 minutes, for example, clocking in at 11:43 AM would be recorded as 11:45 AM, and clocking out at 6:56 PM would be recorded as 7:00 PM.

To enable this feature, go to your Time Clock settings. Choose whichever increment you prefer, click Save, and employees' punches will be adjusted automatically.
