## Frequently asked questions

### How do I convert minutes to decimal hours for payroll?

Divide the minutes by 60. 8 hours 45 minutes = 8 + 45 ÷ 60 = 8.75 hours.

### Can punch times be collected automatically?

Yes. Staff Khata records punches from Realtime biometric machines, a rotating QR code or selfie + GPS, and works out hours and late marks for each day.
