Working time models

Working time models define how many hours an employee should work per weekday. Together with the salary entry, they enable target/actual comparison in time tracking and cost calculation in statistics.

Note

Working time models and salary are managed per employee. Open the detail view of an employee and switch to the Time tracking tab.

Create weekly schedule

1. Open the detail view of an employee.

2. Switch to the Time tracking tab.

3. Click Create in the Working time model section.

4. Enter the effective from date — the date from which the weekly schedule applies.

5. Set the hours per weekday (Monday to Sunday). Each day accepts a value between 0 and 24 hours.

6. Click Save.

Field reference

Field	Description
Effective from	Start date from which the weekly schedule applies
Monday – Sunday	Target hours per weekday (0–24 h)
Weekly hours	Automatically calculated sum of all daily hours (display only)

Tip

When creating, 8 hours for Monday to Friday are entered by default — this results in a 40-hour week. Adjust the values as needed.

Edit weekly schedule

Click on an existing weekly schedule to edit it. The effective from date cannot be changed for existing entries — create a new weekly schedule if needed.

History

An employee can have multiple weekly schedules with different effective dates. The current schedule is determined by the effective from date — the schedule whose start date is closest in the past applies.

Salary entries

In the Salary section of the detail view you manage the employee’s compensation.

1. Click Create in the salary section.

2. Enter the effective from date.

3. Select the salary type: Monthly or Hourly.

4. Enter the amount and currency.

5. Click Save.

Hourly rate calculation

For a monthly salary, Vinitor automatically calculates the hourly rate based on the current weekly schedule:

Hourly rate = Monthly salary ÷ ((Weekly hours × 52) ÷ 12)

Note

The hourly rate depends on the current working time model. If the weekly schedule changes, the calculated hourly rate also changes.

Salary history

As with weekly schedules, multiple salary entries with different effective dates can be stored. The active entry is determined by the effective from date.

Interaction with time tracking

Working time models and salary form the basis for:

• Target/actual comparison — The target hours in time tracking are based on the assigned weekly schedule. Without a weekly schedule, no target hours are calculated.
• Cost calculation — In statistics, labour costs are calculated based on the hourly rate and recorded actual hours.
