Break Credit

Break Credit is used to apply the left over or remaining time that an employee has from a meal
or break to other meals or breaks where the employee exceeded the time allowed.
For example, the Break Credit is setup to allow break time to be credited to meals for the
Maximum Amount of 15 minutes. The break time allocated for the employee is 20 minutes and
the meal time allocated is 45 minutes. The employee takes a 10-minute break and 55-minute
meal. The 10 minutes that employee did not take for the break will be applied to the 10 minutes
the employee went over on the meal. No extra time will be deducted from the employee for
taking a longer meal than allowed. The total time taken from the employee is 65 minutes. If the
Break Credit is not used (set to None), then 75 minutes would deducted from the employee (20
minutes for breaks and 55 minutes for meal).
