Automatic Overtime Logging on Production Clock entry?

Is anybody aware of any way to calculate Overtime automatically?
 

Having multiple Shifts and Calendars on the Work Center indicating this, does not work at all.
On the Clock Entry the User needs to specify a Shift rather than the System identifying this Shift for the User based on the Calendar and current Time.

 

From my findings, the User needs to Clock out at 5pm for example and clock in right after to the OT Shift. This is unusable when the system doesn’t detect this.

There seems to be too much manual effort involved in getting Overtime costs right onto the Production order and also flowing towards Time Cards. 
It will all be presented as Regular time.

 

Any ideas or solutions?

Note: if you run Acumatica Payroll, then overtime calculations are done when the paycheck is calculated.

Thanks for the Note, Doug.

It is more so for the Labor Cost on the Production Order.

I appreciate the quick response from Acumatica Product Management.
