You can edit shifts that have occurred in the past. You can not edit a shift that your student is currently clocked into. 

To edit a past shift: 

  1. From your Dashboard, choose the student's department and click Manage Employees.
  2. Find your student's card and click the blue Details button. 
  3. Scroll down to History. Choose the pay period and department in which the shift was worked and click the green Search button.
  4. A list of the student's shifts from the pay period you chose will appear. Find the one you wish to edit and click the pencil icon to edit. 
  5. A window will pop up. Enter the correct time in and time out, and click the green Save button. 
    If you need to delete the shift altogether, click the red Remove button.

Editing time for a student who is currently clocked in

In order to edit a student's time, that student must be clocked out. You can do this quickly from the dashboard. 

  1. Select your department from the dropdown. Without clicking anything else, scroll down to the "Clocked in Employees" section. You should see cards for all the students currently clocked in. 
    Simply click the red Clock Out button for the student you wish to clock out. 
  2. Once the student is clocked out, you can edit their time using the steps detailed above.
