1 • CLOCKING RULES
Clocking refers to the time someone clocks in and clocks out from timeclock terminals.
TCMS V2 offers 6 attendance columns in 3 pairs.
There are 6 clocking columns to be defined in the Daily Clocking Schedule. When you de-
fine the clocking time(s) in the clocking slots, TCMS V2 would accept the time and place
them into the appropriate clocking columns. For example, if you put 9:00 a.m. as the IN
time, whoever that clocks in at 9:00a.m., the clocking time will be in IN column.
Round the Clocking Time to the nearest minutes as specified in the column and you can
choose to round up, down or choose the midpoint for the time.
Clocking Range: Specify the time to be considered as a certain clocking time before it
is recorded as the corresponding clocking time. For example, if you specify the clock-
ing range for IN as 12:00 p.m., any clocking activities that fall before 12:00 p.m. will be
recorded as IN and the clocking after 12:00 will be recorded as Break.
Latest Clocking: Clicking on this checker will configure the system to record only the
most recent clocking transaction within a clocking range. For example, if your official
OUT time is at 6:00 p.m. and you leave at 6:05 p.m., comes in again at 6:10 p.m. and
checks out again at 6:15 p.m., as long as the time falls under the clocking range of that
time slot, the software will take the most recent clocking time to be recorded in your
attendance record which is 6:15 p.m. However, it is NOT recommended to click on the
checker on the first four columns of IN, BREAK, RESUME, and OT.
NOTE: : It is recommended that you only apply this rule for OUT and DONE only because these two clocking
columns should be recording your latest time for the clocking activities.
