Overtime exists only when the company's overtime switch is on (§9.10); with it off, every hour on every entry is a regular hour. With it on, each entry's hours are split on save, by two rules applied in order:
- Daily — hours beyond the daily threshold (8 by default) on that day are overtime.
- Weekly — once the employee's week (Monday to Sunday) passes the weekly threshold (40 by default), the excess becomes overtime too.
The split is snapshotted onto the entry: changing the thresholds later does not rewrite history.
What overtime is worth depends on which money view you are reading — and the two views differ on purpose:
- The billable value of time — what approved work is worth, in Unbilled WIP and on the invoice it becomes — prices overtime at the billing rate times your company's overtime multiplier (1.5 by default, and yours to set).
- The Project Profitability report counts billed revenue with overtime at a flat 1.5, whatever the company multiplier says.
Where your multiplier is 1.5 the two agree exactly; where it is not, they diverge on the overtime share by exactly that difference. §2.9 states the same law among the governed measures — each figure reproduces the report it belongs to, and neither is a mistake. The cost of time, in every view, is plain: all hours at the cost rate, no multiplier.
