In Control Below are sample notecard settings. The setting behaves similar to the dropdown menu. Reloading the notecard will override any settings you have made with the menu.
range=land
email=test@email.com
login notify=true
logout notify=true
daily bank=500
start time=6:25
stop time=20:01
make payments=false
weekdays allowed=mtwhfsu
To set the allowed weekdays use the key below. If the letter corresponding to the weekday is in the string, the day is allowed. To block a day remove the corresponding letter from the string
m=Monday t=Tuesday w=Wednesday h=Thursday f=Friday s=Saturday u=Sunday
Employee=Governor Linden;60;120
Would allow Governor Linden to be an employee, being paid at 60L$/hr, for a total of 2 hrs a day, at which time he would have earned the maximum 120L$.
Manager=TaraLi Jie;60;120
Would do the same thing, and allow TaraLi to earn money, and gain access to the managers menu.

would like a refund
this time clock is not at all what i was looking for or expecting, all i wanted was something i could use to keep track of my employees, i own and operate a small security company we do roleplay and non role play contracts, that being said some of us arnt always in the same region, some contracts take us outside of our headquarters region so this time clock does not work and i would very much appreciate a refund so i can find something that works for my needs, thank you for your time and hope to hear from somebody soon
2 Stars Might Be Too Generous
I liked the looks, but could not get it to work. I asked for support several times, but got nothing.
Doesn't work, support responded once then ignored
It simply doesn't count about 2/3 of my employees, no matter how much I finesse it. Support initially responded then ignored me. DO NOT BUY, it just doesn't work. I will remove this review or update it if they ever respond and fix the problem.
D O N O T B U Y!!!
Surely wish I would have read the previous reviews! I'm having the same issues! A friend had the older (less pricey) version and recommended this to me for my rp sim. And NOPE, FAIL!! Won't let managers add staff. Won't let staff clock in. Though it did let 2 people of the 7 clock in... ONCE! I followed the same process for adding each employee, why only allow 2 of the 7 to clock in? As for asking the creator for assistance, naaaahhh, I'll just go by the previous reviews and not waste my time! L$999 WASTED! This sim owner, FURIOUS! >:(
The older version was nice, but not anymore.
I bought it and reviewed as follows around 2012.
It had sufficient functions, however,
the newest one does not let our staffs to use it.
I asked the builder for help,
but no response even after about a week.
So I already gave up and ask my friend to build a similar product
with functions much easier to use.
The previous review___
It works very well though,
it is very hard to get user supports from the creator.
I suggested several simple improvements
but I still do not see any replies from the creator.
My suggestions were,
1. Scan range should be less than 90 meters for bonus function,
preferably 30 meters.
2. Payment period should be less than 30 minutes for bonus function
preferably 10 minutes.
100% Pur junk (DO NOT BUY)
100% Pur junk (DO NOT BUY)
None of my employee can log in it nor managers, the embedded ticked system is bogus and you will not get a support reply nor see your tickets. The web page this is tied to is all milking boobs and not staff management (http://www.musedcreamery.com/) also this item is not listed on their products page.
