Auto-register norm time

The Auto-register norm time plugin fills the day’s expected norm time on the employee’s default activity for completed days the employee left entirely empty — no time registrations and no check-ins.

When to use

Use this plugin for employees who are expected to work their norm every scheduled day and shouldn’t have to register anything on ordinary days — only exceptions (absence, overtime) need manual entry. Empty scheduled days are then filled with the norm automatically.

Parameters

This plugin has no configuration options — adding it to the policy turns the behaviour on.

How it works

1. A nightly job checks each completed scheduled day for the employee.
2. If the day has no registrations and no check-ins, the day’s norm time is registered on the employee’s default activity (resolved from their activity list).
3. The fill is written as an ordinary registration, not an auto-managed one: once created it is the employee’s own entry. They can edit or delete it, and registering time on another activity later never removes it.

Because the entry is a normal registration, a day the employee has already touched (a check-in, an absence, or any manual entry) is never auto-filled.

Examples

Salaried staff on a fixed schedule

1. Add the Auto-register norm time plugin to the work time policy
2. Make sure each employee has a default activity on their activity list
3. Empty scheduled days are filled with the norm overnight; employees only register exceptions
