Fields
Field |
Description |
---|---|
Use password |
Select the check box if workers are required to use a PIN code for identification. If the check box is cleared, the Personnel number will serve as the worker ID. Warning When using terminals for time and job registration, PIN codes should be enabled to prevent workers from registering using an incorrect worker ID. PIN codes are enabled as standard. Remember to insert a PIN code for each worker in the Worker form, on the Time registration tab, in the Password field (Click Human resources > Common > Workers > Time registration workers.). |
Use badge ID |
Use worker badge ID as identification instead of the Personnel number. |
Permanent teams |
Select the check box to save pilot/assistant relations after clock-out registration for workers who registered either as assistants to other workers, or workers functioning as team pilots. This enables Microsoft Dynamics AX to automatically re-create the teams the following work day. The first worker in the team who clocks in the following work day, becomes the pilot, and the other members of the team are automatically registered as assistants when they clock in. The pilot makes all the registrations for the team during the day. |
Job table synchronization mode |
Select how to synchronize the Time and attendance job table with base data. If you select Online, every new job will immediately be transferred to the job table. If you select Offline, the job table is updated periodically. |
Registration error mode |
Specify whether registration should be prohibited or auto corrected if an error in raw registrations is detected. |
Get registration time from |
Indicates where the registration time is taken from when a registration is made. Warning We recommend that you set up Time and attendance to use Server time for registrations. If you want to use Client time, remember to block access to computer system time and synchronize time on the client that uses a central server. Refer to the operating system documentation for information about how to block access to system time or synchronize with a server. All registrations have a timestamp. If this timestamp is wrong, data may be corrupted. |
Bar code setup |
Select the type of bar code to be printed on items such as worker badges and job cards. |
Hour |
Select the project journal that will be used for posting time on projects. Time is posted when registrations are transferred. |
Fee |
Select the project journal that will be used for posting project fees. The project fee journal can be opened in the Job registration form and in the Electronic timecard form. |
Item |
Select the project journal that will be used for posting material consumption on projects. The project inventory journal can be opened in the Job registration form and in the Electronic timecard form. |
Post automatically |
Select the check box to post hour journals automatically when registrations are transferred. |
Cost category |
Select the check box to calculate cost based on cost categories applied to the project categories or workers, instead of calculating project cost based on the pay transactions generated. |
