Use the auto-clock out function to assist employees who are normally out of the office or away from terminals at the end of their shifts.
For example, if your delivery agents normally go directly home after their delivery times of 4:30pm, you can ensure that the system clocks them out at 4:30pm daily. In this way, the employees are not required to find a terminal or return to the dock to log in and clock out.
To set an auto clock-out time:
From the System > System Files > User Control menu, select User Maintenance to display the User Maintenance screen.
In the User ID field, enter the ID of the user or user group for which you are setting Time Clock options.
Use the Addl hot key to display the Additional Data screen.
From the Additional Data screen, select Time Clock to display the Time Clock Options screen.
In the Auto Clock Out (Y/N) field, enter Yes or No appropriately. By selecting Yes, the system activates the next two fields.
In the After field, enter the time after which the system should clock the user out. If the user is still clocked in after the time set, the system clocks the user out.
In the Set to field, enter the time to which the system should set the standard clock out time for the user. For example, if you want the user to be clocked out daily at 4:45pm, enter 04:45pm.
Press Esc to save your changes and return to the Time Clock options screen.
Press Esc twice to exit User Maintenance and save your changes.
