Set up Service Hours

A handful of settings decide how hours are approved, how time is rounded, and how the module estimates the value of donated time. You set them once, and every entry follows suit.

Open Settings

Open Settings from within the module. Each area is a card you open to edit — a stat strip across the top shows the current state at a glance: Module, Approval, Rounding, Check-in / out, and Volunteer value.

The settings that matter most

General

Turn the module on or off, set its display label, and choose which person kinds land in the ledger.

Approvals

Decide whether hours need approval before counting, and whether staff-entered hours auto-approve.

Hour behavior

Set the rounding rule, turn check-in/out on or off, and set the missing-checkout threshold.

Related modules

Choose whether hours can attach to Activities, Trips, and Rentals.

Reporting defaults

Set the estimated volunteer value and per-kind compensation defaults.

Estimated volunteer value

Open Estimated volunteer value to set an hourly rate. The module uses it to estimate the worth of donated time in summaries and reports. This is reporting only — it is not payroll.
