My hours or pay estimate look wrong
Overnight shifts, month boundaries, breaks, unapproved entries — the usual explanations before it is a bug.
The total is shorter than the day felt, or the money figure isn't the number you had in your head. It's nearly always one of five things below — work down the list in order.
1. Break time came off the total
Break time is deducted from worked hours unless Breaks are paid is on. Two settings surprise people: Add scheduled breaks when clocking out puts a scheduled break on the timesheet even if you never took one, and Round break time up to scheduled duration records a short break at its full scheduled length. Short shifts are exempt while Don't deduct break time for short shifts is on — 6 hours by default. See Breaks.
2. The shift is still open
A shift with no clock-out counts as zero hours — in the timesheet total, in your week, and in every earnings estimate. The app still shows it as an Active Shift on Home, and the row is flagged No clock-out in Timesheets. Clocking out days later doesn't repair it; someone has to set the real clock-out time. See Forgotten clock-outs.
3. It crossed midnight into a new month
A shift running past midnight into a new calendar month is split at midnight and appears as two rows badged 1/2 and 2/2, so each month looks short on its own. The full model is in How hours land in the right month.
4. A long day is not automatically overtime
Overtime means hours beyond your contracted weekly hours, over a Monday-start week — there's no daily threshold. And if Allow Overtime is off for you, over-contract hours sit flagged as Extra time and earn no overtime premium until a manager approves them. See Overtime and extra hours.
5. The money figure is an estimate
Amounts beside hours are tracked hours × the configured rate. They move whenever a timesheet or a rate is corrected, and they are not your pay — see What "estimated" means.
