Hi all
Running AX 2012 R3 CU10
I'm trying to integrate our attendance tracking into AX from our previous system. We are hoping to have a standalone terminal which people clock in and out of in order to track their shifts. We used to do this with swipe cards.
From all the documentation I've found, it appears that time/attendance tracking in AX uses the job scheduling system to track time/attendance, and to clock in or out you would type your worker ID and password in. However after doing that it "logs you in", showing a personalised screen of job info etc.
Is it possible using AX's system, to have a terminal which the user can simply walk up to when they arrive, clock in (either with swipe card or with id/password), and then the terminal returns to the log-in screen ready for the next person to do the same?
I can't work out if there's no documentation on this because I can't find it, or because it's impossible. But it seems a basic business requirement so I imagine there must be SOME way of doing it.
Thanks in advance for any clarification

Ah that is fantastic news! :)
I'll try testing that out.
This is a standard feature.
If you start the jmgJobRegistration form with the configuration "Clock In/Out", which has no standard landing page, the terminal will return to clock in.
If you go to "Production control > Setup > Terminals" you can configure this for the computer in question.
Please refer to my Blog series on this by going to my blog. Clicking the menu and finding the AX2012 Time and attendance blog.
Hi Crispin
So a new interface would be required? The main question I would have is, is there any documentation about what classes/methods the job scheduler uses to clock people in and out?
If that's simple enough we can probably work something out making a form which users can use.
Thanks very much for your help,
Luke
