Example: Multi-Job Transactions
An employee enters two start transactions. The first is at 8:00 a.m. for job 100. The second is at 9:00 a.m. for job 200.
Scenario 1: The Multi-Job option is cleared on both transactions.
Job 100 starts at 8:00 .a.m. When the start transaction for job 200 is entered, the system automatically ends job 100 with a total run time of 1 hour. Job 200 starts at 9:00 a.m. and continues until one of the following is true:
- An end transaction is entered for Job 200.
- A start transaction is entered for another single job.
- The employee clocks out.
| 8 | 9 | 10 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Job 100 | ********** | ||
| Job 200 | ********** | ********** |
Scenario 2: The Multi-Job option is selected on both transactions.
Job 100 starts at 8:00 a.m. and Job 200 starts at 9:00 a.m. Both jobs will continue until one of the following is true:
- An end transaction is entered for each job.
- The employee clocks out.
| 8 | 9 | 10 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Job 100 | ********** | ********** | ********** |
| Job 200 | ********** | ********** |
Scenario 3: The Multi-Job check box is cleared for job 100 and selected for job 200.
Job 100 starts at 8:00 a.m. The employee wants to start job 200 at 9:00 a.m. and job 100 is still running. When the employee enters the start transaction for job 200 at 9:00 a.m., the system automatically ends job 100 with a total run time of 1 hour, because it is not a multi-job. Job 200 starts at 9:00 a.m. and continues until one of the following is true:
- An end transaction is entered for job 200.
- The employee clocks out.
| 8 | 9 | 10 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Job 100 | *********** | ||
| Job 200 | ********** | ********** |
