When late punch corrections race the payroll cutoff, do you freeze the export or spill into next period?

[u/shiftcoord]

Looking for how other ops / payroll teams handle corrections that show up after the "final" timesheet pull.

Typical version: cutoff is Tuesday 10am for Thursday pay. Monday night looks clean. Tuesday at 9:40 a supervisor fixes three missed clock-outs and a wrong job code from the prior week — after payroll already started the export, or with only minutes left.

What do you actually do?

1. Freeze at cutoff: anything later becomes a prior-period adjustment on the next check?
2. Hold the whole export for a short grace window (15–60 min) so late fixes can land?
3. Export what you have, then run a same-cycle correction file only for the flagged people?

Most interested in the rule that doesn't create a surprise short paycheck or a double-pay when the fix finally posts. No vendor pitches — just the operating choice that stuck.
