Setup

Next PMS requires minimal setup before starting to use it. Please make the changes below on your site.

Projects Settings

As time entries are tracked only by date (not by datetime), we need to allow overlapping entries for both the user and the employee. This will by-pass the overlapping time validation while doing time-entries.

Projects Settings with Ignore User Time Overlap and Ignore Employee Time Overlap enabled

Work Schedule

As each employee can have different-different working hours based on policy, two custom fields are added to Employee DocType to capture employee's working hours and working frequency.

HR Settings Employee tab with Standard Working Hours set to 8

You can setup default working hours for all the employees in HR Settings DocType under Standard Working Hours. If you prefer you can override the values from employee's record.

  • Work Schedule – Specifies whether the working hours are calculated per day or per week, if let blank defaults to Per Day.
  • Working Hours – Indicates the number of hours employee will work based on the selected schedule.

Employee Attendance & Leaves tab with Work Schedule Per Day and Working Hours 8
