Labor Login
If the Labor Tracking feature is enabled for your system and configured for a machine, the Labor Login screen can collect employee data to help in the tracking of operator/staff requirements and the costs of jobs being run on the shop floor.The Labor Login screen allows an employee to login or logout of a specific machine. The screen lists all employees currently logged into a machine, their labor category, and their login time. The employee is prompted to enter a valid employee id with the keypad. Employee's identification numbers and valid labor categories are defined in the Shop Floor Configuration program. If the employee id is not valid, the user is presented with an "Invalid Employee" message.
When a valid employee id is entered with the keypad, a second screen is presented. The name of the selected employee is shown in bold in the center of the screen. The keypad can be used to change the selected employee.
The top of the screen displays up to 30 labor categories that are valid for the employee. The employee must choose a labor category and press the "log in" button to log in to the machine. The bottom of the screen lists the currently logged in employees for the selected machine.
The Labor Login screen also allows an employee to logout of a machine or to change their labor category on the selected machine. When the employee id for an employee currently logged into the machine is entered, the second screen which is presented will highlight the selected employee's row in the employee list on the lower half of the screen. The logout button is used to logout the selected employee and return to the Labor Login screen.
The valid labor categories for the employee are presented at the top of the screen. To change labor categories, click on any valid category on the top of the screen and press the "log in" button. The employee will be logged out of their current labor category for the machine and logged in for their new category.
