Clock In & Out

Staff members can use the timeclock from any workstation to clock in, clock out, specify the job they are working on, and leave a message about where they are.

How to Get Here

• If TimeClock is already loaded on your workstation, double-click (or right-click) the VP Timeclock icon that appears in your system tray.

   

  

  ---

• You can instead open VP Timeclock from your ViewPoint toolbar, or the Add-In shortcut menu.

Use This Feature

• Enter your credentials - You can identify yourself by typing your username and password in the Timeclock window. Or, if you use VP Fingerprint, you can simply press the fingerprint sensor installed at the workstation. See "Acquire Staff Fingerprints" for details.

   

  

  ---

• Type a message (Optional.) - Type a message in the text box to keep co-workers appraised of your whereabouts, or when you intend to return. While generally used when clocking out, you can also enter a message when you clock in. (Open the time clock Status window to see staff messages. See "View & Edit Time Clock Records" for details.)

   

  

  ---

• Select time category - The Timeclock Categories table lists job / pay code categories that your staff can select to indicate how they spent their working hours, and to calculate vacation and well pay hours for your HR Manager. See "Set Up Time Categories" for details.

   

  

  ---

• Confirm - Click Clock In/Out to confirm your working status. The current time clock status, as well as total hours for the week so far are displayed. See "Set Up Time Clock Starting Options" for details about defining which day is the first day of the week.

Notice!

• Timeclock notification - Enable the Timeclock Alert option in your operator accounts if you want ViewPoint to warn an operator when they log into ViewPoint without first clocking into your timeclock. See "Set Up Operator Accounts" for details about enabling/disabling this feature.
