hi all got a strange infringement took my card out at 23.45 on a Thursday but somehow was booked back on at 00.45 on friday then recorded me working ? how come when my card was with me at home on rest 
Did you do a manual entry at the start of your next shift? If the answer is yes then you messed it up. If the answer is no then I have no idea dude.

yes did manual entry the infringement was the 6hr WTD rule if I messed up it would show up driving hrs too ?
No it wouldnāt show up driving hours mate as you did no driving hours, what with you being at home and all. You have during the course of your manual entry told the machine that you were at work though so it recorded that āworkā time.

yes see your point but why did it book me back on friday when I didnāt start until Monday ?
It only does what you tell it.
Chances are good it will rain somewhere in the UK tomorrow, itās equally likely youāve ballsed up the manual entry, based on what youāve told us so far.
Presumably you have time sheet to show you not at work? Do a print out, write on the back āIām a knob, sorry! Hereās some Ā£Ā£Ā£, please donāt fine/sack/kill me.ā Then move on with your life as youāve worried about it too much already.

Sorry I shouldnāt laugh but the āIām a knobā on your print out cracked me up. As others have said, donāt worry about it, it happens to us all.
One hour difference, seems like it could be a manual entry error due to the unit displaying UTC time? Easy done!
I tried a manual entry years ago and made a right balls up. Never done one since, not worth the hassle. Card in start, change truck card out of one into next (regardless of time difference) card in no manual entries crack on.

Which is fine if youāre starting and finishing when you enter/eject youāre card. However if youāre not like we do, then you need to be telling the unit that although you put the card in at 06:45 you actually started work at 06:30. Same for when you eject the thing as well.
Start and finish more or less. Iām salaried so not that bothered drive different truck for maintenance/tyres etc.

Happy days then. Iām salaried also but weāre not as straight forward as card in, start. Card out finish. Manual entries every morning.

Iām salaried but they work out our weekly average off the tacho, so if Iām not recording all my work correctly Iām giving them time for free.
No manual entry can go against you if you get tugged by VOSA especially if thereās a fault they find and you try to tell them you did a daily check and it was OK then. If you put your card in and then set off a minute or two later theyāll ask you when you did your check. Youāre then left with the quandry of whether to say you didnāt do one or admit to falsifying tachograph records by not making a manual entry. Its a win win for VOSA in both cases.
A manual entry also saves you the bother of trying to hide your ātime sheetā stating your actual periods of work should you get stopped by VOSA. 
Card goes in at beginning of shift - start time. Then checks begin with card in. End of shift paperwork filled in last job - eject card, same time as I have put for finish time.
No need for manual entry.
