Manually Locking a Punch to a Specific Work Day

There are times when Time Clock punches fall outside of an employee’s normal shift, and the logic that normally aligns punches to the shift and workday puts a punch in an incorrect day. When this occurs, you can manually lock the punch to a specific work day. This activity is performed on the Timeclock>Employee Time>Punch Activity screen.

To lock a punch, right-click over the punch and select "Lock Punch to Date" from the menu. A date and buttons appear at the bottom of the screen. Select the Day you want to lock it to and click the Save icon.

Locked punches show in Red on the screen.

To remove the lock, right-click over the punch and select Unlock Punch from the menu. The screen will refresh and recalculate the position of the punch. Punches in closed weeks cannot be altered.
