For employees who plan to clock in/out directly on the bus, via a tablet, this setting can be enabled to automatically allow walk time to be added to the paid time for any given shift where this occurs.
To enable this for employees clocking in/out directly via a tablet, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the Payroll tab under Admin > Operational Settings.
- For whichever tablets will be used (Zonar or Synovia) select whether to enable the setting for Sign-in, Sign-out, or both.
3. After the selections have been made accordingly, scroll to the bottom of the screen and press save to finalize the changes.
4. Going forward when employees clock in/out under these conditions the walk time will automatically be added to the ‘Paid start time’ and/or ‘Paid end time’ or both, based on your settings. You can see this in the Time and Attendance Verification screen under Payroll > Verify Hours.
5. Note that the ‘walk time’ that is added to the paid time is the walk time associated with the departure and return yards pertaining to the task.
