Allowances
Typically allowances applicable to shifts are automatically calculated and applied, depending on the criteria setup. These could be based on a range of factors, such as if you were a team leader, what team/position you were assigned to, hours or overtime worked, etc.

These include;
- Allowing hours on break to be entered & any restrictions/requirements
