Hello Dick,

here are examples:

1100 - 1123  work  = 24 min
1124 - 1223 nothing =  60 min (break not greater than 60 min)
1224 - 1259 work = 36 min

= 180 min

1100 - 1123 work = 24 min
1124 - 1224 nothing = 61 min (break more than 60 min)
1225 -  1259 work = 35 min

= 120 min

1100 - 1459 work = 240 min
1500 - 1659 break = 120 min (break more than 60 min)
1700 - 2259 work = 360  min (only the first 120 min counted)

If you work more than 6 hours in this category, only the first 360
minutes are counted.
