Correcting rejected punches in the Time Card
Time Clocks reject employee punches when the punch doesn't match the established criteria. For example, if your property has configured a Schedule Lock Out work rule and the employee tries to punch in when not scheduled, the punch is stored as a rejection. You can then override the rejection. Punches that are unavailable for selection cannot be overridden because it would violate the integrity of the database.

Indicates whether the employee declined to override the rejection (if the option was offered). When an employee punches in, they might see a message that says there is something wrong with the punch. The employee may override the rejection or decline to override the rejection.
For example, if an employee tries to punch In early and your property has rules about how early employees can clock In, the employee is notified by the Time Clock that their punch was rejected. The employee may choose to override the rejection or decline to override the rejection. If the employee declines to override the rejection, the word Decline appears in this field.
If the employee did not have the opportunity to override the punch, this field is blank.
