What's Changing with Hourly Time Entry?

Time Tracking in the Mobile App For Staff Only

Hourly staff members can track time using the Workday mobile app to check in/out of a shift. The mobile app only works at the SER and CUB buildings in Allendale and all downtown campus buildings. Student employees cannot check in/out or track their hours using the Workday mobile app.

Resources: Please see the Time Tracking page for more information including step-by-step instructions in job aids.

Assistance: If assistance is needed, please see the HR contact info on the Workday Support page.

Current and Future State

Current State: Employees in hourly positions complete time entry (clock-in) via their computers or a physical time clock machine. 

Future State: Employees in hourly positions will clock in using Workday by either:

  1. Enter time (manual entry of time blocks of time worked)
    OR
  2. Check-in (clock-in) on a computer or tablet kiosk station

Who is Impacted

  • Hourly employees
  • Managers of hourly employees 
  • PSS who support hourly employees 

Benefits

  • No integration is needed with a third-party time clock system
  • Entering time is simpler and more streamlined 

Potential Challenges

  • Employees transitioning to new tablet/PC kiosks.
  • Time clocks down, only using UltraTime from Dec 18 to Jan 2.
