Clocking a Technician off a Job as a Controller

To clock a technician off a job as a controller, the Load button within POS can be used in a similar way to clocking technicians on.

To clock a technician off a job as a controller:

Click the icon.
Tip: Alternatively, select the Load option from the Workshop menu.

The Workshop Launch Control form is displayed.
Click the Technicians button.
The Technicians form is displayed.
Position the cursor over the line that you want to select and click the Clock button.
A list of tasks on the WIP is displayed.

Note: The system will default the form to suggest that the technician has Completed all of the lines that they clocked on to and the controller will be able to change this if needed to one of the other statuses if required.
Do one of the following:

Click the grid cell in the More work column to identify that the technician was unable to complete the line, and it is necessary for further work to be carried out.
Click the grid cell in the Parts column to identify that the operation could not be completed due to further parts required.
Click the grid cell in the Authority column to identify that the customer needs to be contacted to authorise further work connected with the satisfactory completion of this particular operation.
Already defaulted in the Complete column to identify that the technician has completed the work.
Click the grid cell in the No Work column to identify the extra work that has been carried out.
To confirm the clocking, click Clock OUT.
