Troubleshooting Time Record Batching Issues

Troubleshooting Time Record Batching Issues

Perform the steps for your batching issue:

·        If after selecting records the [Batch] button is grayed out and cannot be selected, see “Troubleshooting Grayed Out [Batch] Button.”

·        If you do not see the [Batch] button, see “Troubleshooting Missing [Batch] Button.”


TROUBLESHOOTING GRAYED OUT [BATCH] BUTTON

The [Batch] button turns green only when Time Records within a Pay Period Type are selected.

This is a safety measure to ensure that only records meant to be batched and processed within the same pay period are selected.

Batching Records

1.   From the Control Center, select the Time Module icon in the upper-left corner of the screen.

2.   In the Pay Period Type dropdown menu, select the pay period type of the records you want to batch.

3.   In the Period field, select a single date within the pay period of the record you want to batch.

4.   Select [Go].

5.   In the Time Editor grid, enable the checkboxes for all the records you want to batch. The [Batch] button color will change from gray to green allowing you to select it and batch the records.


 

TROUBLESHOOTING MISSING BATCH BUTTON

If you do not see the [Batch] button, your license/user role does not have permission to batch Time Records. Contact a system administrator and ask them to update the permissions for that license/user role.

Updating User Roles to Allow Batching

Note: The following steps must be performed by an admin user.

1.   From the Control Center, go to Settings > Employee.

2.   Select the Employee Record of the employee who needs to be able to batch Time Records.

3.   Note the name of the time license/user role assigned to the employee. This is located to the right of the employee profile picture and identified by clock icon.

4.   Next, go to Settings > User Roles.

5.   Select the Time User Role noted in step 3.

6.   In the Execute column, enable checkbox for the Batch Records row.

7.   Select [Save].

All employees assigned to the updated license/user role will now be able to batch records. If the employees still do not see it, advise them to refresh the Time Editor page.
