Team Check In Field Chooser
The Team Check In feature combines the functions of the time card (for all of a team's The default term for a group of employees that work together. Teams as assigned to jobs, so all employees assigned to team will be work on that job. employees Default term for people employed to perform work for clients.) with that of the completion wizard (for all of a team's jobs). It is designed to speed up data entry; from here, you can quickly close jobs and add time codes to multiple employees over multiple dates. In short, because Team Check In completes jobs as well as enters information into the time cards of all of the team's employees, using Team Check In will enhance and simplify job completion and employee time card entry.

Tip: |
A team's work hours is calculated differently depending on the number of employees assigned to the team and the work hours of those employees. If a majority of the team's employees have the same work hours, those work hours will be used as the team's work hours, determining which employees are odd-men or not. If only one employee is on the team, or if there is no clear majority of work orders (e.g., four employees on the team, two of which have work hours X and two have work hours Y), then the team's work hours will be pulled from the first employee listed the bottom of the page (listed alphabetically by last name).
"Odd-man" employees may exist in the Team Check In dialog
box. An odd-man employee - distinguished by the
icon
next to their name - is an employee who meets any of the following conditions:
Has different work hours or time blocks then the rest of the team (or the individual whose work hours are being used for the team)
Unavailable override work hours for that day (e.g., entered via the dispatch board or employee work hours)
If any odd-men employees exist, you can do two things:
Open the odd-man employee’s timecard by double-clicking the employee's initials name at the bottom of the page. You can then compare the odd-man time card with the team's time card to determine what is different and make any edits (if necessary).
Process team check in. The odd-man employee's time card will be processed with the different information.
The field chooser in the Team Check In dialog box is different then the field chooser on the customer list. Although the functionality is basically the same, there are two differences:
Only the Administrator can access the field chooser in the Team Check In dialog box.
The Tab checkbox. Only fields with the Tab check box selected will be able to be “tabbed into.” For example, if the Tab check box is not selected for the "Check #" field, pressing Tab in the Team Check In page will never place the cursor in the Check # field.
