Glossary

Time terms

Sollzeit — What the Tagesplan specifies for that day.

Istzeit — What actually counted, after the break deduction.

Gleitzeit — The balance: Istzeit − Sollzeit. Negative means a time deficit.

Anwesendzeit — Plain attendance, before any Bewertung (evaluation).

Nicht gewertete Zeit — Present, but not counted. For example time beyond the Tagesplan without a Mehrarbeitsfreigabe.

Normalzeit — The share that counts as regular working time — without supplements and special rules.

Industriestunden vs. hh:mm

The application shows times in two formats:

• Industriestunden (decimal hours): 7,50 = seven hours thirty minutes.
• hh:mm: 7:30 = the same time.

1,50 and 1:30 are the same thing — 1,50 is not one hour fifty. The Mitarbeiter Auswertung uses Industriestunden, while the Monatsauswertung uses hh:mm in the very same Zeiten column.

Clocked and evaluated

Personalzeit — A span of attendance: Kommt (clock-in) to Geht (clock-out).

Auftragszeit — Time on an order. In business terms it lies within the Personalzeit.

Gewertet — The values that are actually calculated with. Start gewertet can differ from Start — through rounding or Tagesplan rules.

Offene Buchung — A Personalzeit with no end: someone did not clock out. The list then shows offen.

Accounts

Konto 1 / 2 / 3 — Freely configurable time accounts. Cumulative: the balance is carried over from the previous month.

Urlaubskonto — The remaining leave, in days (not hours).

Umbuchung — Booking time from one account to another, via an Umbuchungsschlüssel (transfer code).

Korrektur — An account balance is adjusted directly, with no source account.

Nachkorrektur — A correction to the last closed month. Writes straight into the Monatsergebnis, without recalculating.

Automatikbuchung (Pos. 0 or -1) — Created by the system. Discarded and created anew with every Berechnen, and therefore cannot be deleted.

Manuelle Buchung (Pos. ≥ 1) — Created by you. Survives every recalculation.

Accounts in hours, leave in days

In the Umbuchung and Korrektur dialog you enter hours for Konto 1–3, and days for the Urlaubskonto. Same screen, two units.

Absences

Fehlzeit — Absence with a reason: Urlaub (leave), Krankheit (sickness), Sonderurlaub (special leave) …

Fehlzeitenschlüssel — The type of absence. Determines the color, the offsetting, the Ausgleichsart and the effect on the Urlaubskonto.

Fehlzeitenregel — Creates absences automatically on a schedule (for example annually, or on public holidays). The entries it creates are generiert and can only be deactivated, not deleted.

Ausgleichsart — How much an absence day counts: the Sollzeit of the day, half the Sollzeit, the difference between Soll and Ist, or a fixed number of minutes.

Antrag — An absence requested by an employee. Needs approval. An absence entered by the Verwaltung in the Kalender is not an Antrag and takes effect immediately.

Generiert — Created by a Fehlzeitenregel. Grayed out in the Kalender.

Deaktiviert — A generated absence that has been rejected. Technically the same as “abgelehnt”.

Other terms

Tagesplan — The target specification for a day: working time, breaks, supplements.

Wochenplan — Which Tagesplan applies on which weekday.

Pausengruppe — The break rules: when, how long, and from what amount of working time.

Mehrarbeitsfreigabe — A flag on the day that makes non-evaluated time count after all. The way to acknowledge overtime you actually want.

Überschreiben — Deviate from the plan for a single day. Freezes the values: after that the day no longer follows plan changes, until you reset it via Zurücksetzen.

Monatsabschluss — Freezes a month. See Monatsabschluss & Bewertung.

Buchungsgrund — Why a booking was made outside the normal pattern: Dienstgang (business errand), Arztbesuch (doctor’s appointment) …

Mandant — Your company in the system. You enter the number at the login.

Schichtarbeit — A flag on employees. Only those carrying it appear in the Schichtplanung.
