Flexitime: Work hours that updates an hour bank

Written by Esben Hedegaard

Introduction to check in and out of daily working hours

This article describes how to register your working hours by checking in and out in BitaBIZ when your working time updates an hour bank (flex time).

The registered working hours affect your hour bank balance daily with plus or minus hours.

Your working time card and balance can be viewed in the web portal under My calendar.

Guide to using check in and check out

How to check in

Start by opening BitaBIZ – either in the mobile app, in Outlook, or via our website.

Click the green “Check in” bar.

BitaBIZ suggests the current time as the start time.

The start time can be adjusted if necessary.

Finish by clicking “Check in.”

The date of the time registration can be changed if backdated registration is allowed.

How to check out

Open BitaBIZ.

The yellow bar indicates that you are already checked in.

Click the yellow bar to check out.

BitaBIZ suggests the current time as the end time.

You can adjust the end time if necessary.

Finish by clicking “Check out.”

The balance box shows how your working time registrations affect your hour bank balance.

Week overview

Daily working hours are shown in the working time card, where absence, time off in lieu, and overtime are displayed.

In addition, actual working hours are shown, as well as how the hour bank is affected by each individual day.

Find the working time card in the web portal under “My calendar.”

Reminders and live view

Access to reminders depends on your company’s setup.

Push notification

If you forget to register your hours, you will receive a friendly reminder the following day.

You will only receive a notification if the previous day was a working day and no absence has been registered.

Live feed

When you check in via the app, a timer starts on your mobile home screen.

You can check out directly from your mobile home screen.

Time off in lieu, overtime, and payout

Taking time off in lieu

Create a new registration.

Select: Overtime / time off in lieu → Time off in lieu

Time off in lieu is registered as a full day.

It is not possible to register both working hours and time off in lieu on the same day.

The balance box at the bottom of the registration shows how many hours your hour bank is adjusted by.

Time off in lieu of non-accrued hours

The balance box is shown as a yellow bar if you request to take more time off in lieu than you have accrued.

Overtime job codes

Overtime job codes are used if registered working hours should accrue additional hours in the hour bank
(e.g. 1:2 for work on public holidays).

Access to overtime job codes depends on your company’s settings.

Payout of balance

If allowed, you can request a payout of your hour bank balance via the “Payout” link.

Access to payout depends on your company’s settings.

Team calendar

When you are checked in, your presence status is shown in the team calendar.

When you check out, the status is removed.

Export working hours to Excel

Your time registrations can be exported to Excel.

From the web portal, click:

  1. “My registrations”

  2. Select period: (from/to)

  3. Select type: “Time registration”

  4. Click “Show results”

You will now see your time registrations, including the total of your hours for the selected period. Click the Excel button to export your hours.

Note: The export from “My registrations” is for personal use only – not for follow-up or reconciliation of balances.
