Web Clock Layout Configuration

You can optionally let individuals report time and view daily time events using Web Clock. You configure the nonunified and unified web clock layout using the Layout Sets task in the Time Management work area.

Web Clock Layout Configuration

You can edit the layout to make these configuration changes.

Configuration Options	Usage Description
Hide or show seconds on the clock	The digital clock appears on the web clock page with or without seconds showing.
Enable the button logic rule	Individuals either can or can't click earlier buttons after they click a button later in the sequence.
Restart sequence after last button	Either make all the buttons available again after the person clicks the last button in the sequence, or keep the buttons unavailable.
Allow manual entry of missing In event	Individuals either have or don't have the option to manually enter the missing In event when they're clocking out.
Enable viewing of daily time events	Individuals either can or can't see the corresponding time events in the Daily Time Events section after they click a button. When enabled, they can see the events for the current day and day-by-day for up to 7 previous days.
Specify whether to use device or server time	When individuals' layouts configurations use device time, validate whether the device time is within the allowable difference with server time. If it isn't, then the time event uses server time and saves the device time as additional event information.
Enable editing of clock time with change request	Instead of letting individuals edit their time cards directly, let them request changes to their time and corresponding attributes.

Buttons

You add the buttons that you want to include on the Web Clock page and optionally select an icon for each button. You can also change the display label. If you want all the label text to show, limit the labels to 70 characters or less.

Individuals see these button labels and icons on their Web Clock. The device that they use to open Web Clock dynamically identifies how many buttons they see per row. For example, if they open Web Clock on their smartphones, they probably see one button per row in portrait mode. If they use a tablet in landscape mode, they might see three or four buttons.

Time Card Fields

Optionally, you can add any nonunified and unified time card fields that individuals need to complete. And again, you can change the display names. If you want all the names to show, limit them to 70 characters or less.

Caution: When the selected web clock buttons and fields have the same time attributes, the time repository stores the field value and ignores the button value.

The sequence of the fields is important for data filter dependencies. For example, your layout includes location fields. You need to select a state before you can select a county. And, you need to select the county before you select a city.

Individuals see these fields on their Web Clock, in addition to the buttons. They and their managers also see these fields on the corresponding pages of the time cards generated from the clock events.

If individuals submit change requests instead of directly editing the corresponding time card, you also identify the fields where they can change the values. Individuals can edit their time data for the enabled fields when they open the Request Change page from Web Clock.
