Time rounding questions

Why round tracked time at all?

Because many contracts and payroll rules bill in fixed increments. Rounding applies one consistent rule instead of leaving each person to round in their own head.

Does rounding change the underlying entries?

The recorded time stays what it was. Rounding shapes how the time is presented and totaled, so the original record remains available.

What increments can I use?

The increment is a setting, so it can follow the interval your contracts or payroll actually use rather than a fixed default.

Should everyone use the same rounding rule?

Usually yes. Rounding is an organization setting precisely so a client’s hours do not depend on which person entered them.
