| Scripting - Exception | ||||||
| ||||||
| An EXCEPTION is basically a way to "flag" a time card. The exception will be displayed with an exclamation symbol that will display a short description when it is clicked on. The exceptions will also appear on the summary report. To activate an exception, you will write a script like: exception = "This is an Exception"; So, if you need to throw an exception on a timecard to flag punches where the employee was late to work, you can add a script like this: if (istimes = true) { if (intime >= 9:01am) { exception = "Employee is LATE!" ; } } This tests to see if the employee clocked in later than 9:01am and will populate a yellow diamond on the employee card. Exceptions can be "approved" by a supervisor (which will stop the exception from appearing on the timecard), there are two steps to activating this feature: 1. In Accountant Menu > Miscellaneous Settings, put a check mark in the box next to 'ExceptionApproved'. This will add the "Exception Approved" check box to the "Punch Edit" screen 2. Add a line to the bottom of the existing script, that turns off the exception, if the Exception Approved box is checked: if(exceptionapproved){exception = "";} Note, an exception can show up on your Download Activity File export, depending on your format. | |
