Version 2018
The process for changing an employee’s name in this version is extremely simple so I won’t spend too much time explaining it. Basically, all you will need to do to change an employee’s name in the system is
- Enter Admin mode
- Navigate to Employees
- Double-click the employee’s name or single-click and select Edit Employee Record
- Mark the box “Edit Employee Info”
- Change the name in the First, Middle, and/or Last Name fields
- Click OK to save the changes
You’re done with the name change. It’s just that easy.
Legacy Versions
The Legacy versions of TimeClick include version LE 16, 12, SP1, LE, and version 2010. All of them have the same process for changing an employee’s name. Again this process is simple but in these versions, can be easily overlooked. To change the employee name,
- First, you will open TimeClick and enter Administration mode. This is done by clicking Administration in the toolbar at the top and selecting Enter Administration Mode.
- Enter your password to enter Administration Mode. If you have not set a password, the default is “system”
- This will pull up your administrative options. Select the third option down,
- This will pull up your Add/Edit Employee Records window. Select the third option down, Employee Name Change.
- This will bring up a list of all of your employees. From this list highlight (by clicking) the employee’s name you want to change, then click Select.
- You are now in the Name Change To edit your employee’s name click in the box and delete the existing information. Replace it with your employee’s new name.
You are done! You can now return to the main screen and select Refresh, which allows you to see the change.
