ETIMECLOCK / ETIMECLOCK PROFILE

#588 – Bulk Transactions Management
The Bulk Transaction Management page has been redesigned with a more intuitive user interface while maintaining its existing functionality.
Administrators can continue assigning transactions for:
- Individual employees
- Multiple employees
- Supervisors
- Organizational levels
- Single or multiple dates
New Enhancement
When assigning transactions by Supervisor or Organizational Level, administrators can now choose to:
- Apply transactions to all matching employees (default)
- Select only specific employees
If “Generate for all employees” is deselected, dual selection lists are displayed, allowing users to easily choose which employees will receive the transaction.
An improvement introduced is, when assigning by supervisor or org level, allowing to create the transaction/s for all or some of the employees. By default, the option to generate for all the employees is selected
But if it’s unchecked 2 lists will display with the list of employees matching the “Assign by” criteria to pick the employees to which the user wants to create the transactions.
SCHEDULE TEMPLATES
#576 – Merge of “Weekly”, “Multi-day” and “Dynamic Schedule” configuration pages
The previously separate configuration pages for:
- Weekly Schedules
- Multi-Day Schedules
- Dynamic Schedules
have been consolidated into a single Schedule Template configuration page.
This provides a simpler and more consistent administration experience.

Add/Edit
Configuration. This tab contains the general configuration information used in the schedules.
In the case of Weekly and Multi-Day schedules they both contain a second tab for the schedule definition specific for the type of schedule.
Weekly.
Multi-Day.
In the case of the weekly schedules the grid contains an option to regenerate schedules for the assigned employees.
This opens a dialog with the configuration for the regenerate offering 2 options, regenerate current pay period or specify a date.
By default, the schedule will be regenerated for all the employees assigned to the selected Schedule but the user can specify only a group of employees to regenerate and, if the schedule is regenerating from a specific date, it can overwrite the “Regenerate From” date (if left blank it uses the general “From” date). Also, on the employees’ list the user has the option to view the current employee’s schedule (fig 2)
