# How do I configure pay periods, overtime, and rounding?

> Set the pay period, overtime thresholds, time rounding, auto clock-out, and reminders.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * Available on plans that include **Time Tracking**, and configuring these rules requires the **Manage Time Tracking** permission.
  * Pay-period boundaries are calculated in your organization's timezone, which is the source of truth.
  * These rules apply organization-wide to every staff member's timesheets.
</Note>

One settings page controls how worked time rolls up into pay. Go to **Settings → Time Tracking → Time Tracking Settings** (the page itself is headed **Time Rules**).

**Pay Period**

Choose a **Pay period type** — Weekly, Bi-weekly, Semi-monthly, or Monthly — and set the **Anchor date** that fixes where periods begin. The **Timezone** shown is your organization's and determines each period's boundaries.

**Overtime**

Set a **Daily threshold (hours)** and/or a **Weekly threshold (hours)**, plus a **Multiplier** (for example, 1.5×) applied to hours over the threshold.

**Clock Behavior**

Set **Auto clock-out after (hours)** to close entries left running (12 hours by default), a **Reminder after (hours)** nudge, and a **Rounding** interval for recorded times. You can also require timesheet approval here.
