Acroprint Attendance Rx - Manual (Page 4)

Preparing and Setting Up before Use
Before you use your Attendance Rx system for the first time, you should run through a setup
procedure. The application comes with default settings so that if you choose, you can simply
click through the initial Pay period setup, add employees and start clocking IN and OUT.
However, you might want to include or configure many of the other features to meet your
particular needs.
Here is a suggested setup sequence you may wish to follow.
Notes:
9 Most settings can be changed at any time and will affect only the total time
accumulations in the Previous and Current Pay Period.
9 Changes to the next pay period start date will lengthen or shorten the duration of the
current pay period, but not affect the Previous Pay Period.
Steps:
1. Print a Rules Setup Report
2. Adjust the following items located in the Setup section as desired:
• Pay Period Length
• Next Pay Period Start Date
• Max Time on the Clock
• Overtime Thresholds
• 7th Day Overtime
• Pay Interval Round
• Date Format
• Time Totals Format
• Time of Day Format
• Day Change Time
3. For each shift used, adjust the following items located in the Shifts and Lunches
section as desired:
o Set up shift rules
o Set up lunch rules
4. Add Employees to the Attendance Rx System.
5. Generate a Rules Setup and Employee Profile Report
After checking these reports for accuracy and making any desired changes, you may begin
entering transactions for all of your employees.
