Time card auto populate scheduled holidays and approved, planned time off.

The schedule for company holidays and approved employee time off is entered into the database.  When an employee uses the Time Card function and clicks on ADD TIME CARD LINE the system should automatically add a line (with appropriate earn codes) for any scheduled holiday and or time off for that week.

    Hi everyone, Kim is spot on! Thanks for putting your solution in here.

    All our customers handle time off and holidays differently so we cannot make this standard in the product. Going through our Professional Services team here at Trimble or using a trusted partner like Fiddletree is the best route to take for this feature, customization will guarantee the solution works for your company's specific needs.

    We purchased a Fiddletree package that does this for us and it is amazing! The package was pretty inexpensive and their team worked with us to make sure it picked up all the proper earn codes for our leave codes and our holiday calendars. All of their pricing is listed on their website at Fiddletree Systems. Their team is very knowledgeable in both Vista and Vista Web and they are super helpful in other areas too!

    This would be a really nice feature to have automated so that people non-exempt (hourly) employees aren't entering more than 8 hours for vacation or holiday timecard entries or even potentially forgetting about it and end up being paid for overtime hours when it should be straight time.

    Is there any plans on implementing this function? This is a huge necessity in saving our payroll staff time and the people entering time. It can be tricky for people in the field (superintendents and pms) to remember to enter the holiday and time off. This needs to be implemented for both the HR and Grid timecards.

    I imagine a LOT of companies would be experiencing a similar situation and would want this feature. This would be a great feature to add as part of the standard system without having to go the route of customization.

    Please consider adding this functionality to the VPOne Grid Timecard as well.

    Hey Mark,

    You can start doing this today through a tech services customization that can create timecard lines associated with approved time off requests and holidays for your employees' standard timecard. The customization can generate lines via a SQL job or a button in Vista.

    Let me know if you have any questions!

    This would save our staff time. In addition, help our payroll department process payroll  at holidays which have less works days due to the holiday.  Great suggestion.
