Bypassing a validation
Use this procedure to bypass a validation when you make a punch.
- Swipe your badge as you normally do.
- If your swipe violates a rule that allows bypass, wait for the validation bypass confirmation screen to be displayed.
- Read the messages on the screen:
- Read the message that explains you are choosing whether to bypass a validation for this swipe.
- Read the message that explains which validation has been triggered and why your swipe would normally be rejected.
- Choose how to respond to the validation:
- Select Yes to bypass the validation and continue with your swipe.
- Select No if you do not want to bypass the validation. The validation rejects your swipe and the punch is not recorded.
- If another validation bypass screen appears, choose again how to respond to the validation.
- Review the validation messages.
- Select Yes or No for that validation.
Note:- Your swipe is accepted only if you select Yes for each validation that is displayed and no other validations reject your swipe.
- If you select No for any validation, the swipe is rejected at that point and no further validations are shown.
- Your organization can review swipes where validations were bypassed. The system records which validations you bypassed for each accepted swipe so that supervisors and payroll administrators can audit them later.
