Split at Day Start Time Rule

You can configure work day definitions to use the spanning days rule Split at day start time, on time entries that span midnight. The time entries can be on classic, responsive, or enhanced time cards.

This rule splits the entry into two entries, an entry that stops at midnight and an entry that starts at midnight. The earned and reference dates for each of the two entries match the entry start dates.

Entry Spans 2 Periods

In this example, the reported entry that starts on April 11 at 10:30p and ends on April 12 at 6:30a becomes two reported entries:

Time Card Period	Date	Start Time	Stop Time	Complete Time Entry
April 5 to 11	April 11	10:30p	NA	10:30p to 12:00a
April 12 to 18	April 12	NA	6:30a	12:00a to 6:30a

The earned and reference dates for these entries are April 11 and April 12, respectively. When the time card, absence accrual, and pay periods are the same, the entries get processed, accrue, and get paid in the same period.
