Hour OFFSET

This is used to adjust the time so that it equals your local time. Normally this is a negative number. You
MUST click the TEST button before it will be saved.


Test
Clicking on this button will test the Auto Internet Clock update feature. If successful, the current National
Standard time will be displayed below the button. This function also updates the computer's system clock.

Manager Mode Password

If left blank, no password is required to enter Manager Mode. The PASSWORD can be from 1 to 10
characters in length.

Allow Employee Notes

When checked, employees have the ability to leave a note when punching IN or OUT. For example; If an
employee was late to work, they could put a note such as; “Car would not start”. To use this feature, the
employee would press the tab key, enter a note, then press the tab key again, and punch IN or OUT. The
notes will print on the end of pay period time sheet.

Add Job Tracking

When enabled, this function allows you to track your labor cost for each job. When employees punch
“IN”, they also have to select the “JOB” that they are working on. In the EMPLOYEE’S IN SYSTEM
section under Manager Mode, it allows you to enter an Hourly Billable rate for each employee.
TimeClockLE uses this rate and the total time to calculate the total billable labor for each job. A report for
the desire job is printed under the JOB TRACKING section in the Manager Mode. When disabled, the Job
Tracking references are totally removed from TimeClockLE to reduce confussion.

Bell Schedule

The Bell Schedule allows TimeClockLE to audibly notify your employees of the start and ending times for
all punch IN and OUT periods. This way your employees can concentrate on their jobs instead of the clock.
The Bell Schedule can only used on computers that have a Sound Card installed on them.

Simply type the time that you want the alarm to sound and enter the number of the corresponding sound.
After you enter it, you can test the sound by highlighting the entry, then clicking the test button.

The window for all PUNCH times is plus and minus three minutes. If work starts at 8:00 am, you would
enter "7:57:00 AM" for the first alarm, and "8:02:00 AM" for the second alarm.
