Scripting - Adding More Departments to Your Clock Prompts Through Scripting
When setting up a clock prompt there is a 230 character limit when using the option, ‘Require employee to choose an entry from a list’. You can use scripting to extend the amount of departments used at the clock prompt.

Instead of entering the department you want to use, you can write a script that will let you assign a smaller identifier to represent the department at the prompt.

If(x= "1")
{
x= "Warehouse";
}

This script reads that if someone enters ‘1’ when prompted through the clock prompt ‘X’, display ‘Warehouse’ on the timecard. This keeps them from having to type out Warehouse on the clock when prompted to enter a department.

Note: There is not a restriction on the amount of text/characters you can use for scripting in the scripting area (Accountant Menu > Custom Processing / Rounding Rules).
