Clocking In and out

This is a different problem altoghether and I am kinda running out of ideas
I am trying to store date/time for a user when he/she edits a record. A date/time needs to be stored when the modified record is saved
I need to use this data and then find out the time spent by the user on that particular record.
This clocking in and out on the record can happen multiple times by a user during a day.
I need to store the date/time the user starts editing the data as well as the date/time the user saves the modified record
Any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply Bob,
This was solution which was actually rejected as the user might visit and modify the record many times and too many tasks would be created.
I was wondering if we could create a custom field named start time and end time on one task and it keeps on updating itself and in some way the historical data can be reported??

  • Clock in and Out - Negative TIm MGT

    Hi FRds,
    Can we maintin the Clock and clock out In Negative Time Management.
    As of client is in Negative Tim MGt. .. But now i says that he wants to maintain the Clock in and Out From Time Recording System.
    Please suggest for the above ..

    Hi Sri,
    In Positive Tim Can we capture the absenses without any Manuall Interaction.
    Ex: 1) If the employee is absent for 2day, the quato is available for only 1 day. than the system should automatically has to be deduced one day under Quota and other as a LOP. Can this is be done ( automatically)
    Can u plz update me with some documents  or link which helps in Configuring this Postive Tim.
    What are the steps to be considered before staring  '+ ive' TIM MGT Configuration.

  • Clokc in and out problem

    hi,
    I have a requirement :I need to give the error message when the employee no "clock in or
    clock out"record. but some employee need 2 pair time event record, another employee need 1 pair,
    this restrict according to their "daily work schdule". some DWS need clock in and out only once time(one pair),
    some DWS need clock in and out two times (2 pair)
    for example:
    daily work schedule AAA: fixed work time: 08:00 - 17:30 , break :12:00-13:30
    so thik kind of people need 2 pair time event.
    08:00 clock in
    12:00 clock out
    13:30 clock in
    17:30 clock out
    now my problem is : if the employee no clock out record at 12:00 and no clock in record at 13:30
    the system will think 08:00 and 17:30 as one pair ,so not give the error message. so how to solove
    this question?
    thanks!
    Olivia

    Olivia
    I see your point.    Perhaps the TE schema may need additional set up in the schema as follows
    1) Shift in Daily work schedule is 0800 - 1700 (meal breaks 1200 - 1300)
    2) Note that in positive TE, 0800 / 1200 form a time pair and 1300 - 1700 form the next time pair
    3) You may want to use the clock out - clock in = hours to compare against the time pair in (2)
        if the hours > time pair in (2) AND there exists only one pair of clock in / out for the day
        then you may deduce there must be a missing clock in / out for meal breaks
    My 2 cents.   Hope this thought may help in one way or the other
    Cheers

  • Is it possible to have Clock in and clock out times in weekly view

    Hi,
    We have Daily View and Weekly View in Record Working Time iview in ESS.We can set the Clock in and Clock out times in Daily view if we check the With Clock Times checkbox in Data Entry Profile.But we want to have same Clock in and Clock out in Weekly view without any developement.
    If it not possible thru config how much will be the Development Effort

    Hi Bala
    You can have clock in and clock out in a weekly view.
    you have to change the data entry profile settings.
    In general settings tab in data entry profile click the with clock times button and maintain the Period type to 02 in time settings tab.
    And you can view the weekly entry in clock in and clock out.

  • Clock in and clock out issue

    Hi All,
    I am looking for  a solution for the below issue. Please help me out
    Clock in and clock out details from third party terminal are stored in SAP in IT2011.
    My requirement is if the duration between first clock in and last clock out is less than 4 hours system should consider as LOP for that day.
    can you please let me know if I should a PCR or any other way.
    Regards
    Vish

    You can do as below:
    Normally time type 0000 is used for normal attendance hrs in time schema PCR's like TP09, TP10, TP11.
    Before CUMBT function, call a PCR using ACTIO to do as below:
    If the daily value is time type 0000 < 4.00, insert a w/t for LOP absence hrs for the day.  The hrs can be as per the business rules:
    a)from IT 7 -  provided IT 7 has the correct data from WSR and WSR is correct.
    HRS=IDAHRS           daily hrs 
    or
    HRS=IWEHRS  HRS/5    weekly hrs/5
    or
    b)from the DWS for that day
    HRS=S        -DWS hrs including any substitution
    See example below assuming 0000 time type for normal attendance hrs, 8001 time w/t for LOP hrs.
                 D   HRS=D0000    HRS?4
    <                HRS=IDAHRS  ADDZL8001
    In payroll,
    - Time w/t's from time eval are imported by ZLIT function (usually in XT00 sub schema).
    - PCR XPPF and its sub PCRs this w/t hrs can be used to reduce the partial pay factors e.g. /801 used to reduce the payments like basic pay, etc. 
    - PCR XVAL uses these factor w/t's to reduce the payments.

  • Need support - Writing PCR (To find missing clock-in and clock-out)

    Hi Gurus,
    I need support on writing PCR on below scenario.
    Scenario:
    Need to determin missing clock-in and clock-out punches and generates LOP for the same.
    Regards,
    Raji

    Hi,
    In this case you need to build logic like the follow.
    Assumptions: mulitiple time pairs are there.
    First check employee present or not, then check data coming through time events or not then check first pair after that take HRS value as start time of first pair if yes store day balances in ABCD. in case of No check Last pair take end time store in as day balance BCDE. after that based on day balance values genearte wagetypes in another PCR.
    Note: in same PCR you can store wage type aslo.

  • Buffered event counting. Why can't I explicitly sequence generating the Sample Clock Pulse and reading the counters?

    At irregular occasions I need to grab counts from several counters, and buffering the counts must be done simultaneously for all counters. I'm modeling my approach after zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5404 which someone kindly pointed out in an earlier thread. However, that example only uses one counter, and you can't test the synchronization with only one counter, so I am using two counters configured the same way, and they're wired to a single benchtop signal generator (for example at 300 kHz).
    What I want to do, I can test in a loop with a somewhat random wait in it. I want to drive a hardware digital output line high for a few ms and then low again. The hardware line is physically connected to terminals for my timing vi's Sample Clock Source and so will cause them to buffer their counts for later reading. After I pulse this line, when I know new good buffered counts await me, I want to read both my counters. If their bufferings are simultaneous, then each counter will have counted the same number of additional counts since the last loop iteration, which I can check by subtracting the last value sitting in a shift register and then subtracting the two "additional counts" values and displaying this difference as "Diff". It should always be 0, or occasionally +1 followed immediately by -1, or else the reverse, because buffering and a count could happen practically at the same moment.
    When I do this using a flat sequence to control the relative timing of these steps, so the read happens after the pulse, the counters often time out and everything dies. The lengths of time before, during, and after the pulse, and the timeout value for the read vi, and the size of the buffer and various other things, don't seem to change this, even if I make things so long I could do the counting myself holding a clipboard as my buffer. I've attached AfterPulse.vi to illustrate this. If I get 3 or 10 or so iterations before it dies, I observe Diff = 0; at least that much is good.
    When I use two flat sequences running in parallel inside my test loop, one to control the pulse timing, and the other to read the counters and do things with their results, it seems to work. In fact, Diff is always 0 or very occasionally the +/- 1 sequence. But in this case there is nothing controlling the relative timing such that the counters only get read after the pulse fires, though the results seem to show that this is true. I think the reads should be indeterminate with respect to the pulses, which would be unreliable. I don't know why it's working and can't expect it to work in other environments, can I? Moreover, if I set some of the pulse timing numbers to 1 or 2 or 5 ms, timeouts start happening again, too. So I think I have a workaround that I don't understand, shouldn't work, and shouldn't be trusted. See SeparateSequence.vi for this one.
    I also tried other versions of the well-defined, single sequence vi, moving the counter reads to different sequence frames so that they occur with the Sample Clock Source's rising edge, or while it is high, or with the falling edge, and they also often time out. I'll post these if anyone likes but can't post now due to the attachment limit.
    Here's an odd, unexpected observation: I have to sequence the reads of the counters to occur before I use the results I read, or else many of the cycles of this combine a new count from one counter with the one-back count from the other counter, and Diff takes on values like the number of counts in a loop. I though the dataflow principle would dictate that current values would get used, but apparently not so. Sequencing the calculations to happen after the reads fixes this. Any idea why?
    So, why am I not succeeding in taking proper control of the sequence of these events?
    Thanks!!!

    Kevin, thanks for all the work.
    >Have you run with the little execution highlighting lightbulb on? -Yes. In versions of this where there is no enforced timing between the counter and the digital line, and there's a delay inserted before the digital line, it works. There are nearly simultaneous starts on two tracks. Execution proceeds directly along the task wire to the counter. Meanwhile, the execution along the task wire to the digital high gets delayed. Then, when the digital high fires, the counter completes its task, and execution proceeds downstream from the counter. Note, I do have to set the timeout on the counter longer, because the vi runs so slowly when it's painting its progress along the wires. If there is any timing relationship enforced between the counter and the digital transition, it doesn't work. It appears to me that to read a counter, you have to ask it for a result, then drive the line high, and then receive the result, and execution inside the counter has to be ongoing during the rising line edge.
    >from what I remember, there isn't much to it.  There really aren't many candidate places for trouble.  A pulse is generated with DIO, then a single sample is read from each counter.  -Yup, you got it. This should be trivial.
    >A timeout means either that the pulse isn't generated or that the counter tasks don't receive it. - Or it could mean that the counter task must be in the middle of executing when the rising edge of the pulse arrives. Certainly the highlighted execution indicates that. Making a broken vi run by cutting the error wires that sequence the counter read relative to the pulse also seems to support that.
    >Have you verified that the digital pulse happens using a scope? -Verified in some versions by running another loop watching a digital input, and lighting an indicator, or recording how many times the line goes high, etc. Also, in your vi, with highlighting, if I delete the error wire from the last digital output to the first counter to allow parallel execution, I see the counter execution start before the rising edge, and complete when the line high vi executes. Also, if I use separate loops to drive the line high and to read the counter, it works (see TwoLoops.vi or see the screenshot of the block diagram attached below so you don't need a LV box). I could go sign out a scope, but think it's obvious the line is pulsing given that all these things work.
    >Wait!  I think that's it!  If I recall correctly, you're generating the digital pulse on port0/line0...  On a 6259, the lines of port 0 are only for correlated DIO and do not map to PFI. -But I'm not using internal connections, I actually physically wired P0L1 (pin 66) to PFI0 (pin 73). It was port0/line1, by the way. And when running some of these vi's, I also physically jumper this connection to port0/line2 as an analog input to watch it. And, again, the pulse does cause the counter to operate, so it clearly connects - it just doesn't operate the way I think it is described operating.
    For what it's worth, there's another mystery. Some of the docs seem to say that the pulse has to be applied to the counter gate terminal, rather than to the line associated with the sample clock source on the timing vi. I have tried combinations of counter gate and or sample clock source and concluded it seems like the sample clock source is the terminal that matters, and it's what I'm using lately, but for example the document I cited, "Buffered Event Counting", from last September, says "It uses both the source and gate of a counter for its operation. The active edges on the gate of a counter is used to latch the current count register value in a hardware register which is then transferred via Direct Memory Access...". I may go a round of trying those combinations with the latest vi's we've discussed.

  • IPhone 5 voice call quality fade in and out. Noise Cancellation interference?

    I've been having this huge problem with the iPhone5. The evidence i've collected seems to indicate this is a problem with all iPhone5's.
    On calls in certain places both indoors and outdoors, the callers voices over the iPhone5 fade in and out. Their voices occasionally completely fade completely away, and only come back momentarily. The low volume for 50% of the time forces me to raise the volume, but raising the volume does not help because when the voice does come back, the volume is too loud for my ears.
    I went back to the Apple store and they are not able to help me. They suggested a clean restore, which I did. They offered to replace the phone, which I did, but it is the same problem.
    - iPhone 5 vs. iPhone 4S, the fading does not occur. I make the call to the same voice mail system I have, and the sounds from the other side are consistently the same volume for the 4S, but fades in and out for the 5.
    - I connected up a 8mm jack between my iPhone 5 and my mac in an attempt to record this problem. In that instance, the sounds from the voice mail DO NOT fade in and out. I did find out that the dynamic range on the iPhone 5 is MUCH greater than that of the iPhone 4S, for some strange reason.
    - When I hold the phone up to my ear, the fading in and out does occur, but it is less noticeable. But it's still there.
    - When I leave my work area the problem goes away. However, because the iPhone 4S on the same AT&T service does not have this problem, this leads me to believe it's NOT a lack of transmission power from the AT&T cell tower. Rather, it is a reception issue at the iPhone5 side.
    - I turned off LTE, data and then made the calls. Same issue.
    I use this phone to make 60 minute calls for conference calls frequently. I cannot use it. Please advise. I am seriously considering returning this phone. Except i've sold my old iPhone 4 already. I'm in a bad place. Please help.
    Here's another post of a fellow with the same exact problem.
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1456404
    Apple, please look into this. I believe this is a problem with the noise cancellation software.

    I've got an update on this problem with fading volume. I've isolated it to the set volume on the phone for voice calls when using headphones. When the headphone volume is set between 1 and 6 (out of 16 squares) the callers volume will consistently fade in and out. The fading which is normal to zero volume at 2-5 Hz is serious enough that normal conversation is impossible.  When the volume is raised above 6/16 then the callers voice stabilize and I can hear all their words again. Unfortunately, at 6/16 volume their voices are too loud for the headphones.
    Furthermore, when headphones are plugged in, and I initial a call after the iphone5 was idle for several minutes, the first dial tone has preceded by a very loud pop an the tone, as though there was too much pressure (charge) that was dissipated all at once.
    Other details:
    - I used 3 different earphones, iPhone 4 headphones, altec earphones, an the new iPhone 5 earbuds. Same.
    - I turned on and off lte, data, Bluetooth, wifi. Problem persists unaffected.
    - when switching to iPhones earpiece and mic, the fading is gone.
    - I have 3 out of 5 bars where I teste this, in the city outside and on hwy 5 in central California. Same symptoms in all places I've tested.
    - I have exchanged my phone at the apple store. Same issue with both iPhones an I suspect all ipjone5s.
    - the ipjone4s does NOT have this problem when the volume is set lower. I can tell that the iPhone 5 must have a new audio filter to make the sounds have larger dynamic range. I liked the 4s better, because it is easier on the ears!

  • How do you cut and paste tables in and out of Excel from either Mail.app or Outlook 2011?

    When I try to cut and paste a table generated in Excel for Mac into the body of an email the formatting holds but when I send the table is reduced to one column. Same is true for copying from incoming mail into Excel, when I paste into Excel it is reduced to one column rather than keeping the table format. I have tried using mail.app and went out and Outlook 2011 and both programs have the same issue. The reformatting also happens when I forward an email received from a coworker that contains a table, not just on cut and paste operations.
    I need to do this regularly and right now my only option is using my old PC where the cut and paste function keeps formatting between Excel and Outlook just fine. Attaching a pdf or excel file is not an option. There has to be a way to maintain the formatting and being able to extract the tables keeping them intact. Please let me know if you have a solution to maintain this formatting within email programs. Thank you in advance.

    Selecting all does not help - the issue is I need a table within an incoming email to be moved to excel, edited and then pasted back into a new email. "Select All" picks up the email headers, signatures, any messages around the table etc so that doesn't work. Also, as pointed out above Excel doesn't have a select all feature to get the tables back into the body of an email.
    I just tried again going from Excel into Outlook 2011. No luck. All one column down the left side of the email. All columns are removed and text crammed into one column. Just to check I cut from one Excel document and pasted into another and it retained all formating just fine. It is only in and out of Outlook that seems to be the issue.

  • Iphone 5s on Verizon Network  Wifi not working Wifi keeps coming in and out

    I just recently purchased the Iphone 5s from Bestbuy and I have noticed that my data usage is enormous. I haven't even had the phone for a week but my data usage is almost at 50% of my monthly capacity. I have my iphone connected to WIFI always when I am at home and work. The majority of my day I am in a building with WIFI. I called Verizon to figure this thing out and they said that my WIFI connection keeps coming in and out and that is why I have used so much data. Is there a way this can be fixed or should I return my phone? The Verizon Wireless Rep told me there is an issue with the WIFI but since I am new to iphone I just wanted to try everything before I return the phone. I have AT&T U-verse cable and internet. I never had a problem with the WIFI on my Galaxy S3. The wireless icon always appears to be on but the REP told me that isn't always the best indicator that the phone is using purely WIFI.

    In the US, Apple handles all iPhone warranty/support issues. So, make an appointment at any Apple store.

  • I am no musician, but have owned an iMac now for around four years. During that time I have had Garageband installed. I have dipped in and out very occasionally as I would like nothing more than to be able to get my head around it just for my own amusemen

    I am no musician, but have owned an iMac now for around four years. During that time I have had Garageband installed. I have dipped in and out very occasionally as I would like nothing more than to be able to get my head around it just for my own amusement really. I would at least like to be able to record my electric guitar with loops and tracks etc, just try to be a bit creative and see what comes out. The problem that I have is that perhaps its me, but every time I try to get to grips with this software, I just can't seem to get my head around it, even to begin to do something. I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that. I have also recently purchased a Rocksmith RealTone Cable to connect my guitar. I can sometimes get a sound come out, but nothing to brilliant. And every time I try to set something up, it just doesn't seem to work out. I end up hitting buttons and controls in the simple hope that I may hit the correct control in order to get some sort of result. But I'm kind of fumbling in the dark with this. I have trawled the Internet just trying to find either a good manual or video tutorials for absolute beginners, but there just simply doesn't seem to be anything of that nature out there and what there is appears always to be very sketchy and not particularly detailed in explaining anything properly, and so I always find myself seemingly jumping in with both feet and just struggling to try and find a foothold with this on how to really begin. It is so frustrating as I can see the fantastic potential of this software, but just can't understand how to use it properly. If there is anyone out there who may be able to offer me some advice with this, I would be most grateful indeed... Many Thanks.

    I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
    Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
    The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
