!!DEFINE CLOCK DEVICES

Clock devices may be used to record employee in/out times. The ITCD function is used to define and maintain clock device records. 

Features:

Clock device codes must be unique within an entity.

Clock devices may be designated as active or not active.

Clock entries are accepted from only “active” clock devices.

A clock device may be assigned to a location, department, work area or workstation in order to associate all clock entries from that device to the specific area.

A clock device may be assigned to a cost center in order associate all clock entries from that device to the cost center.

If using Clock Devices in conjunction with the G1 or G2 interface, each terminal (i.e. time clock) should be given a Machine Name that corresponds to a Clock Device Code in ePersonality.  This will be stored in the reference information of the clock entry.


Define Clock Devices data is stored in the [P2K_TS_CLOCK_DEVICES] table.

;[Clock Device|CLOCK_DEVICE_CODE]:This is the user-defined location code that uniquely identifies the clock device. 
Clock_Device_Code is a mandatory 16-character alphanumeric field that is manually entered.
;[Device Status|CLOCK_DEVICE_STATUS]:This field describes the status of the clock device.
Device_Status is a mandatory field the user must fill either manually or by using the fixed lexicon (X_CLOCK_DEVICE_STATUS).
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]:This field allows the user to give additional information and description about the clock device.
Description is an optional 50-character alphanumeric field the user may manually enter.
