How to ensure you assign a job to all relevant Time Clocks and Schedulers

The reason why the jobs created and added to the Job Scheduler are not the same as the Jobs in the Time Clock is that they exist in separate entities. This means that if you create a new job and want it to appear in both the Job Scheduler and Time Clock, you need to add it to both features separately. If you don't, the jobs you create in the Job Scheduler won't appear in the Time Clock, and vice versa.

Take a look at the example below, where the jobs in the Time Clock (left) are different from the jobs in the Job Schedule (right) because they have been added in each place individually but they have not been assigned to both features:

If your users are assigned to the Time clock and also to the Schedule, and you would like the jobs to be the same in both, you can easily adjust this by comparing the existing jobs in the feature and making sure to add the missing ones in each so the features match completely.

Take a look at the following two scenarios to understand how you can quickly and easily make sure that your jobs match the time clock and scheduler. 

From the Jobs Tab

Important Note: (1) Our developers are currently in the process of gradually migrating all accounts to incorporate this new feature and (2) The Jobs Tab only becomes available for accounts that have more than one Time Clock or Job Scheduler. If you don't have the jobs tab, please proceed to read the next section instead of this one.

Once you are on the admin dashboard, you will be able to view and access the Jobs tab from the left sidebar. Here, you will see all the jobs that exist in your account and can quickly assign each job to the time clocks and schedules you need, as illustrated below.

From Each Feature

To make sure the jobs match on both features, you can also access each feature separately and ensure that the jobs chosen in each are the correct ones.

  1. Simply access the Job Schedule from the left sidebar

  2. Click on Access schedule

  3. Click on the Jobs button on the top right corner and review all the jobs that have been assigned to the scheduler. Once you know the exact ones you need, navigate to the Time Clock from the left sidebar and click on Access clock

  4. Then click on the Jobs button on the top right corner and click on Add Job and a list of all existing jobs in the account that have not yet been assigned to this feature will appear.

  5. Make your selection based on the ones that exist in the schedule and that's it! Your jobs should now match on both features.
