  2. The remaining times to be entered on the form should match the punches displayed in Kronos, except when no meal break was taken for the day.
    1. Punches can be entered on the form by clicking anywhere inside one of the boxes displaying a time.
    2. Times should be entered using the 12 hour format. Examples (do not include quotations): "8:00 PM", "9:13 AM", "10:37 pm", and "3:42 am". The AM and PM are not case sensitive.
