As of 1811 release, it is possible to define in a way that a break gets automatically generated after a configured duration of working time has passed.

For example: break deduction of 30 minutes after 6 hours of working time and another 15 minutes after 9 hours of working time.

Configuration Steps and the working of this feature:

• Configure the field 'dynamic-break-config-code' in the job information portlet via Admin Center -> Manage Business Configuration.

• Provide permission to the field via Manage Permission Roles.

• Navigate to Manage Data -> Create new 'Dynamic Break Configuration'. The configuration below means that after 6 hours of working time, there must be 30 minutes of break. Additionally if the total working time exceeds 7 hours, then there must be 60 minutes of break (including the 30 minutes for the 6 hours worked).

• Assign the object to the job information field configured 'dynamic-break-config-code'.

• Refer the work schedule, where there is no scheduled breaks configured.

• In the Time Profile, make sure the Main Break Time Type is filled.

After above configurations, the dynamic break will be auto-generated when the recorded attendance or requested absence or the combination of the two fulfills the defined Working Time duration as defined in the Dynamic Break object.

Additionally, if there is also planned fixed break scheduled in the work schedule of the employee, then the planned break within the work schedule will override the dynamic break configuration.
