Departments are assigned to locations.  Each location can be assigned an unlimited number of departments. 

Sub Departments

An unlimited number of sub-departments can also be added by simply selecting the Parent Department of the department which is added.  This is particularly helpful for larger enterprises which have several reporting departments 

Department Heads 

Department heads establish reporting relationships within BoVi HR. For example, the Leave Request of Supervisees in department A, go to the Department Head employee.  

Leave Requests sent by the Department of Head of a sub-department, are sent to the Department Head employee of the Parent Department 

Break Time

 BoVi HR allows you to set a break time for different departments. Breaks are paid periods of times. 

The Automatic Deduct Extra Break Time feature, when enabled, removes the extra time spent on breaks outside of the allotted time.  For example, if a department allotted break time is 15 minutes, and the employee spends 20 mins,  minutes of paid time is removed from the employee's total hours. 

Automatic Time Deductions 

This feature is used to automatically deduct times from all employees in the selected department.  It is normally used when an employee clocks in and does not clock out until they leave in the afternoon. Employers can automatically deduct a specific time per department for their employees.  The time deduction is reflected in the "Company Attendance"

Work Codes

 Sometime the needs arises for an employee to work in second department and for the attendance data to be tracked based on the work. For example, Housekeeper may be temporarily asked to work in the Kitchen  to help fill a shortage because of a sick out. 


BoVi HR allows you to change the Work Codes assigned to each Time punch and then run a report based on the Work Codes for the specific period.
