Timed events ?

Howah44 -- "Is there any rounding done with respect to the various timed events ?"

--  Aside from loading, S&R of DPS trays, and riffling ( probably more ), most timed events should be less than a minute, so unless a counter has an actual stop watch - like the one featured on "60 MINUTES, pretty hard to round down to the nearest second.

--  Any example(s) you can share?

I guess, I should have been more specific, rounding to the next minute.

 I must have lost what is left of mind to think that the PO would round up to the next minute on loading if its say 12.45, or round down if its 12.15.

--  While nice, I'd be suspect of that happening.

Depends on the size of your office. No possible way to do Throwbacks in less than a minute in our office. Mine are actually around 2 minutes. 

All timings are to the second.

My counter only rounds up on the totals for the entire 12 day count.  Each days totals are to the second.  </blockquote>
The program the Post Office uses automatically roundups the totals for loading and other suitable, for the entire count.

That's at the end for the Evaluation page but during the count, everything is to the second.

I know. Read the post I was responding to." My counter only rounds up on the totals for the <strong>entire 12 day count</strong>. <strong>Each days totals are to the second</strong>. " I said entire count as well, not daily.
 
You never have even seconds; so on my stop watch it will say like 31.33 seconds; I call that 32 seconds.  Only rounding I'm aware of.
