Minutes do not change. Convert the hour, then add the same minutes:
To go back, subtract 12 from any hour of 13 or more: 1850 is 6:50 p.m.
Overnight shifts are where a.m. and p.m. mistakes cost money. A shift from 2200 to 0600 is clearly 8 hours; written as 10:00 to 6:00, it is easy to misread. Many time clocks show punches in 24-hour time for this reason. See overnight shift time tracking and the second shift guide.
Convert a single time with the military time converter, turn minutes into decimals with the timesheet conversion chart, or let EZTime record clock-ins and total hours automatically.
