What's missing
Where the app can't follow a rule to the letter yet, its notes say so, and say how to allow for it when you enter your hours. From this page's agreements:
- Zone 1 (Quad Cities, Illinois and Iowa). The June 1 2027 schedule isn't out, so the app keeps the 2026 rates after May 31 2027: then type your new rate under Enter my own rate.
- Zone 1 (Quad Cities, Illinois and Iowa). The agreement isn't public, so the app has no step to double time on a weekday, no 4×10 and no make-up day; check overtime against your stub. Iowa has no state schedule: the app uses the same rules for the Iowa counties.
- Zone 1 (Quad Cities, Illinois and Iowa). The agreement's own list isn't public (the state schedule adds Veterans Day for some classifications), and whether a holiday on a Saturday or Sunday moves isn't known, so the app leaves each on its date: tick Holiday on any other day your job observes.
- Zone 1 (Quad Cities, Illinois and Iowa). The shift rules aren't published, so the app adds nothing for night work; leave Night off, or use Enter my own rate if your stub shows a premium.
- Zone 1 (Quad Cities, Illinois and Iowa). The app shows the three on one 9% line, so the Year tab counts the vacation in Union dues logged.
- Zone 1 (Quad Cities, Illinois and Iowa). Not published (the agreement isn't public), so none are built in. Enter the hours you're paid; to show a per diem, switch it on on the Settings tab and type it.
