Time Entry - Timestamp Tab

Time Entry - Timestamp Tab

The first active tab on the Time Entry page is the Timestamp tab (if you are enrolled to enter timestamp transactions). Recording a timestamp is similar to using a time clock.

TimeSaver uses three labor levels and provides flexibility for naming the labor levels. Throughout TimeSaver documentation you will see the default names for the levels: Site, Department and Position. If you see a different name on your TimeSaver web page, it is because your organization is using the flexible labelling feature. For more information, see Labels for Labor Levels.

Instead of a mouse, use the tab key on your keyboard to access the fields. When you access a drop-down field, use the down arrow key to access its list and press Enter when your selection is highlighted.

To read an overview about Time Entry, which includes additional field and button descriptions, see the Time Entry Overview.

Accessing the Page

Timestamp tab

Field Descriptions

The following are descriptions of the fields seen on the Timestamp tab.

Site

If you need to record a transaction for a site other than your home site, select another site from this field. Your home site is the default selection.

This field displays only if your manager enrolled you to enter transactions for sites other than your home site, and if secondary sites were assigned to you in TimeSaver.

Department/Position

If you need to record a transaction for a different department/position, choose from the selections in the Department/Position field. The Stay in Current Department/Position option is the default setting.

Your manager may have specified an option during enrollment that restricts your ability to enter secondary departments. In this case, the Department/Position field does not display.

If you need to record a transaction for a department/position to which you have not been assigned, select Unlist from this field. For instructions, see Time Entry - Select Unlisted Department Position Window.

Log Off after Transaction

Select this check box if you want to log off from Time Entry without returning to the Time Entry page after the transaction has been recorded.

This option may have been selected for you during enrollment.

Add Punch (button)

Click to enter your timestamp transaction.

The current date and time displays just under this button. The date and time are synchronized to your home site time (adjusting for time zone and daylight saving time as needed).

If schedule restrictions were set for you and you enter a punch outside of those times, a warning message prevents you from recording the punch.
