| Answer | ||||||
| Splits are used to divide certain times which can be used to stop one set of rules and start a new set. For example: split (6:00am); This tells the system that if a punch (in to out) crosses 6:00am create another out punch of 6:00am and then a in punch of 6:00am on a separate line to split the time. This is commonly used in setting up shifts (days, swings, and nights) that have differential pay assigned to it. Here is an Example: if (touches (3:30pm, 11:00pm)) { split (3:30pm); split (11:00pm); category = "Swings"; payrate = payrate + .50; } This script in conjunction with a touches script (Scripting - Touches) uses splits to set up a separate shift based on punch times (3:30pm-11:00pm), establishes a pay category (Swings) and assigns a pay differential for working in that category of their base pay plus $.50. | ||||||
