What are 'Activities' & How they can be used

Activities are basically role types in the Chronicle such as 'Supervisor'. It can also be used as a job, for example 'Driving'.

They are a great way to track what people are doing and where your hours are being spent.

People can have a default activity so that when they clock in and out all hours populate this activity rate.

However, employees can for a morning or afternoon or whole day temporarily change activity on one of our many clocking devices. Such as Clocking Terminals, Smart Phone or Desktop applications.

You'd assign a default activity within the employee's work record.

The above shows the employee's default activity is working as Supervisor.

There are various additions you can assign against an activity:

• Hourly Rate
• Job and Finish (See: Job and Finish - Job and Knock Logic – Chronicle Computing)
• Does not count towards overtime

Activities can be good for tracking how many hours was worked on a specific job or area - One useful report to track this would be the 'Activity Report' report found under 'Reports'.
