A military time calculation answers two practical questions: the standard 12-hour time equivalent and the elapsed time between two clock entries. A 0700 start is 7:00 AM, a 1600 end is 4:00 PM, and the gross span between them is 9 hours. For payroll or billing, the usable result is usually paid time after subtracting unpaid breaks.
The calculation also catches entry mistakes that AM/PM fields hide. An employee who enters 1900 means 7:00 PM, not 7:00 AM. A shift from 2200 to 0600 crosses midnight, so the end time belongs to the next day. Treat military time as a clean input format, then apply the same timesheet rules you use for any other clock-in and clock-out record.
Military time uses a 24-hour clock. Times from 0000 through 1159 stay in the AM range, with 0000 meaning 12:00 AM. Times from 1200 through 2359 are PM times, with 1200 meaning 12:00 PM. For times after 1259, subtract 12 from the hour: 1745 becomes 5:45 PM, and 2130 becomes 9:30 PM.
For duration math, convert the minutes to decimal hours before multiplying by a rate. A shift from 0700 to 1600 has a 9-hour gross span. Subtract a 30-minute unpaid meal period as 0.5 hours, leaving 8.5 paid hours. At $28.50 per hour, straight-time pay equals $242.25 before taxes, deductions, overtime premiums, or state-specific premiums.
The most common mistake is treating clock minutes like decimals. A 30-minute break is 0.5 hours, not 0.30 hours. A 15-minute difference is 0.25 hours, not 0.15 hours. Payroll totals normally use decimal hours because pay rates multiply against base-10 numbers, while clock entries use base-60 minutes.
Overnight shifts need one extra step. If the end time is lower than the start time, add 24 hours to the end side before subtracting. A 2300 to 0700 shift is 8 hours because 0700 becomes 31.00 in the elapsed-time calculation. Rounding also needs discipline: federal time-clock rounding can use the nearest 5 minutes, tenth, or quarter-hour only if it averages out over time and does not underpay actual hours worked.
A one-off military time calculation is enough when you need to convert a single shift, check a pasted timecard, or confirm a daily total before sending it to payroll. It also works for quick invoices where the start time, end time, unpaid break, and rate are already settled.
A managed workflow matters once time comes from many people, calendars, projects, and approval steps. Everhour's calendar integration can turn Google, Outlook, and iCloud calendar events with defined start and end times into timesheet entries within a configurable window. It excludes all-day, recurring, and pre-connection events, so calendar-based time still needs review before payroll, billing, or reporting.

Military time from 0000 to 1159 converts to AM, except 0000 is 12:00 AM. Military time from 1200 to 2359 converts to PM, with 1200 as 12:00 PM. For hours after 12, subtract 12 from the hour and keep the minutes. For example, 1845 becomes 6:45 PM.
Subtract the start time from the end time after converting minutes to decimal hours. A 0730 start is 7.5, and a 1615 end is 16.25, so the gross span is 8.75 hours. If the shift crosses midnight, add 24 hours to the end time before subtracting.
Clock minutes use base 60, while payroll math uses decimal hours. Dividing minutes by 60 gives the decimal value that works with hourly rates. Thirty minutes equals 0.5 hours, 45 minutes equals 0.75 hours, and 6 minutes equals 0.1 hours. Using 0.30 for 30 minutes understates paid time.
Military time does not change overtime rules. For U.S. federal baseline calculations, covered nonexempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a fixed FLSA workweek, paid at not less than 1.5 times the regular rate. State law, contracts, or employer policy can add stricter rules.
Unpaid breaks are subtracted only when the break qualifies as unpaid time. Under the federal baseline, short breaks an employer provides, usually about 5 to 20 minutes, are compensable hours worked. A bona fide meal period is generally unpaid only when the employee is completely relieved from duty.
Everhour's calendar integration turns Google, Outlook, and iCloud calendar events with defined start and end times into timesheet entries. The configurable sync window runs from 15 minutes to 3 hours before or after the event, and all-day, recurring, and pre-connection events do not sync.
Everhour timecards record clock-in, clock-out, breaks, and daily, weekly, or monthly work-hour totals for payroll review. Weekly timecards can be submitted and approved, then exported as PDF, CSV, or XLSX when a payroll file or archive record is needed.
Convert military time once for a quick check, then use Everhour calendar entries and reviewed timecards when those hours need approvals, payroll handoff, or billing records.
