Profile & Wage Settings

Your profile defines your work conditions, schedule, and pay rates. If you have multiple jobs, create separate profiles and switch between them.

Profile Tabs

The profile editor has four tabs:

1. Detail — Basic Information

Name — a label for this profile (e.g., "Main Job", "Freelance")
Country — used for automatic public holiday detection
County/Region — for country-specific tax rules (e.g., German Bundesland)
Work period — Weekly, Biweekly, or Monthly calculation cycle
Daily work hours — your target hours per day (e.g., 8 hours)
Default break time — standard break duration (e.g., 30 minutes)
Hourly rate — your base pay rate
Currency — the currency for wage calculations
External ID — optional ID for integration with external systems
Remaining vacation — your current vacation balance

2. Work Calendar — Schedule Setup

Work days — select which days of the week you work (Mon–Sun)
Holiday behavior — configure whether public holidays count as overtime or regular days
Per-day hours — set different work hours for different days (e.g., 8h Mon–Thu, 6h Friday)
Planned in/out times — your expected clock-in and clock-out times

3. Finances — Rates and Shifts

Configure detailed pay rates:

Overtime rate — multiplier or fixed rate for overtime hours
Weekend rates — separate rates for Saturday and Sunday work
Holiday rate — rate for working on public holidays
Shift rates — different rates for morning, afternoon, and night shifts, each with configurable time ranges
Vacation rate — pay rate during vacation days

The app validates shift time ranges to prevent overlaps.

4. Vacation — Time Off Tracking

Annual vacation days — your total entitlement for the year
Sick days — annual sick day allowance for tracking purposes

Multiple Profiles

You can create as many profiles as you need — one per job, client, or role. Switch between profiles by:

Tapping your profile name in the top bar
Swiping from the right edge to open the profile drawer
Selecting a profile from the profile list

Each profile has its own work records, settings, and statistics. The active profile is shown with a checkmark.

Employee vs. Freelancer Mode

Employee mode (daily work hours > 0) — enables overtime calculations, vacation tracking, and daily targets
Freelancer mode (daily work hours = 0) — focuses on total hours and earnings without overtime calculations

Company Integration

If your employer uses Working Timer, your profile can be linked to a company. Company-linked profiles may have:

Work request workflows (vacation approval, etc.)
Company-specific settings and restrictions
Shared data visibility with managers

Tip: Set your country correctly — it determines which public holidays are automatically recognized in your calendar and affects how overtime is calculated on those days.
