Improved Consistency Check for Routes
Add logic to the consistency check for routes to verify that there are properties assigned to a route operation AND at least one resource requirement record for the route operation. When performing an import of route lines, 10's of thousands sometimes, it is very easy to miss a record in the dat...

Use the job card device without the whole time and attendance functionality
Some businesses want to use the job card device basically as a tool to execute and track real-time production and provide instructions and guidance to the floor. They may not have the need to control time and attendance of production workers at all. Sometimes they'd like to but they are not st...
Thank you for your feedback.
We do not have in our current plans to enable separation of the use of the Job Card Device from the time and attendance functionality. However, for customers who do not use the time and attendance functionality it is now possible to set up the Approve and Transfer process as a recurrent batch job. This is done from the update menu in the Approve form. In this case you need to setup a recurrent batch job for "Approve all" and "Transfer all". It is not enough only to set it up for "Transfer all", because the registrations need to be approved first when using this functionality. In this type of scenario it is recommended to use a time profile without Clock-in and Clock-out. This way you ensure that the calculation in the approve form is not failing due to missing absence codes.
