How to set the number of working hours per day for your organization?

It is important to set up your Fiscal Year and Working Hours Per Day when your organization starts using PartnerHR. These settings are necessary when handling Time Off Requests, and calculating vacation time owing for your employees.

Follow the instructions below to define the Working Hours Per Day for your organization.

Under the "Settings" menu, click " Company Configuration."



On the Company Configuration page, do the following:
  1. Set the correct Fiscal Year Start Month and Start Day. 
  2. Set the appropriate "Default hours worked per day" for your team (e.g. If your employees typically work an 8-hour day, with 30 minutes for lunch, set the "Default hours worked per day" to "7.5").



Once done, your changes will be saved automatically!
