Enabling schedule validation in WFM

You must complete the following tasks in WFM:

  1. In the reader configuration in WFM to which your clock belongs, select the Enable Schedule Validation check box for the reader in Maintenance > Reader Setup > Readers.
  2. In the reader configuration in WFM to which the clock belongs, specify the appropriate values for the Start Grace and End Grace parameters in minutes. These values are the time period in minutes at the start and at the end of the employee's shift during which an employee's swipe is considered valid.

    Although recommended, this configuration is not required to implement schedule validation.

  3. For each employee that requires schedule validation, select the Enforce Schedule check box for the employee badge in Maintenance > Employees > Employee Badge.
For more information on each of the above values and how to complete these tasks in WFM, see the Time and Attendance Implementation and Administration Guide.
