Mass Entry

Mass Entry allows users to enter punches, absences, disbursements, or hours for an entire group of employees at a time.

This screen can be accessed from either the Time Card or Schedule section of the program.

  • To access "Mass Entry" from the main Time Card screen, click on the Supervisor link, and then on Mass Entry.

  • To access "Mass Entry" from Schedule, click on the Mass Entry link at the top of the screen.
    Note:
    This link can be accessed from any screen in the Schedule section of the program.

The "Mass Create Punch Groups" screen opens. Before you can insert mass entries, you must first create a "punch group."

Creating a Punch Group

  1. Click on the [ADD GROUP] icon located at the top of the screen.  The "New Group" window appears.

  2. In the Description field, enter a name for this punch group.

  3. If you would like to filter the list of available employees by assigned department level, make the desired selection from the Filter by Department drop-down menu.  Click on the icon to select the department from a map.

  4. If you would like to include sub-departments in the department list, put a check mark in the Include All Sub Departments option.

  5. The Employees section of the screen is split up into two sections.  The Unused box contains all employees (based on your selected filter options).  The Used box contains the employees that are assigned to this punch group.  Select the desired employees from the Unused box, and click on the [>>] icon.  The selected employees are moved to the Used box.
    Note:
    To select multiple employees, hold down the <CTRL> or <SHIFT> key on your keyboard while clicking.

  6. To remove employees from the punch group, select the desired employee in the Used box, and click on the [<<] icon.

Each punch group is listed on the main "Mass Create Punch Groups" screen.  To edit an existing group, select the radio-button for the desired group and click on the [EDIT GROUP] icon.  Click on the icon to delete a punch group.
