Formula Used

Regular Pay = Regular Hours × Hourly Rate
Effective Multiplier = max(Row Multiplier, Type Multiplier)
Overtime Pay = Overtime Hours × Hourly Rate × Effective Multiplier
Total Pay = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay
Overtime % = (Overtime Hours ÷ Total Hours) × 100
Optional steps: break deduction reduces regular hours; rounding is applied after deductions; cap mode can shift overflow into overtime per row.

FAQs

1) What is the difference between row and type multipliers?

Row multipliers handle special cases per entry. Type multipliers apply standard rules for weekday, weekend, or holiday overtime. The tracker uses the larger value to avoid underpaying premiums.

2) Does the weekly cap calculate real weekly totals?

Cap mode is a practical safeguard per row. If you need true weekly aggregation, enter one row per employee per week, or group rows externally, then recalculate for accurate weekly caps.

3) How does rounding work?

Rounding converts hours to common payroll intervals. For example, nearest 15 minutes rounds to 0.25-hour steps. Rounding is applied after optional break deductions.

4) Can I track overtime without listing regular hours?

Yes. You may enter only overtime hours if regular hours are not needed for that entry. The tracker still calculates overtime pay and includes it in totals.

5) What if an employee has different hourly rates?

Add separate rows for each rate period. This keeps pay accurate and makes auditing easier, especially when shifts, job codes, or premium rates change.

6) Why are exports unavailable before I calculate?

Exports use the most recent calculated dataset stored for the current session. Run the tracker once, then download the CSV or PDF from the results section.

7) Can this replace a full payroll system?

It’s a tracking and estimating tool for overtime visibility and reporting. For taxes, benefits, approvals, and compliance workflows, connect it with your payroll and timekeeping process.
