Export Data to Time Collection Devices Process

You can export data such as person information, payroll time types, and published WFM schedules to time collection devices. Use the Workforce Management Time Device Export Data process.

  • Set up important info on the time collection devices as part of the implementation by running a onetime, full export of data to the devices.
  • Maintain current data on the time device by scheduling full and partial recurring and onetime exports. With recurring exports, each process exports the specified data that's valid for the current period in the specified start and end dates.

Here are the modes that you can select when you schedule the Workforce Management Time Device Export Data process:

Export Mode Description
Full export

Send all valid data to the time device.

Select this mode for the initial export during implementation.

Purge and full export Delete all existing data from the time collection device and then send all valid data.
Updates only export Send only changes made to valid data since the last export.

You can schedule this process using either of these two tasks:

  • Export Time Device Data Configuration in the Setup and Maintenance work area
  • Scheduled Processes in the Time Management work area

Web Clock doesn't require export data because it gets person and schedule data directly from the time repository. And each button definition contains relevant payroll time data.
