Form Details
Employee Clock-In/Out
Purpose
This procedure is essentially a time clock. It is usually used in conjuction
with a bar code wedge device for reading bar coded employee badges, but data
can also be keyed by hand. When the employee number is entered or scanned the
system checks the current login status of the employee. If the employee is not
already clocked in then the system will clock the employee in. If the employee
is already clocked in, they will be clocked out.
Frequency of Use
When employees report for work and leave at the end of their shift.
Prerequisites
Employee information must be entered using the EMP.E procedure and control parameters must be defined in the LABOR.CONTROL and BAR.CONTROL procedures.
