Misc. Settings

From the Miscellaneous Settings tab automatic application startup and stop, Employee Over-Time Processing and Report Defaults are configured.

Over-Time area

Pay Over Time? (Check Box) - If your company pays for over time, check this box so that Time and Attendance will keep track of over-time hours.  Accumulated Employee overtime hours will appear on the "All Employee Posted Time" report.

Daily - Select Daily if your company considers over time as anything over 8 hours (for example) for the day.  When you click on "Daily", a box will be displayed immediately to the right of this check box into which you should enter the number of hours per day that are considered a normal work day at your facility.

Weekly - Select Weekly if your company considers over time as anything over 40 hours (for example) for the week.  When you click on "Daily", a box will be displayed immediately to the right of this check box into which you should enter the number of hours per week that are considered a normal work week at your facility.

Input Device area

Serial Bar Code Reader - If you are using a Serial (RS-232) barcode reader to log your employees in and out, enter the COM Port Number that your Serial Barcode Reader is plugged into  (Typically 1 or 2).  

NOTE: You cannot use a  Serial (RS-232) barcode reader and a Serial (RS-232) Magnetic Stripe reader on the same port on the same machine.

Keyboard Wedge - Select this entry if you are using a keyboard wedge barcode reader or a laser barcode scanner  to log your employees in and out. Keyboard wedge devices must be pre-programmed by YukonSoft in order to work correctly with Y.E.S.!™

None (Keyboard and Mouse) - Select this entry if you do not have a barcode reader.  Employees must log in and out using the keyboard and mouse.

Setup Report Defaults - Performs the same function as the Utilities Menu function of same name.  Clicking on this button will open up the Report Options Dialog:

Repair and Compact Database - Performs the same function as the Utilities Menu function of same name.

Change Admin Password - Performs the same function as the Utilities Menu function of same name.

Set Alarm Sound Files - Enables or Disables Audio Confirmation Messages.

Select Clock -

The purpose of this function is to dynamically set the clock in the machine hosting Y.E.S.! Time and Attendance™, in a network environment, to the clock of another machine on your local area network (LAN).  By this means, Employees who try to change the clock on the machine that is hosting Y.E.S.! Time and Attendance™, so  that they can punch in or out "on time" when they area actually coming in late or leaving early, will not be successful in their attempts.   Y.E.S.! Time and Attendance™ will always use the time retrieved from the machine selected through the use of this button.  The default time computer will initially be the machine on which Y.E.S.! Time and Attendance™ is installed.  

Clicking on this button will open and use the Select Network Computer Dialog, shown below:

To select a master time computer, simply browse to the machine name that you want to use as the master time machine, and click on the "OK" button.
