Info
Misc


The Misc tab contains an assortment of initialization options for Jarrison Time (previously found in the Jarrison.ini file), applied depending on what type of system configuration is in place and what is required. Jarrison Time and the Engine will need to be exited and restarted for a changed option to take effect. The below options will override duplicated options in the .ini file.

Access Group Change - Set the default number of days Access Group Valid To dates can be extended by (for more see the Biometrics section in the User manual).

BioStar Link Custom - Links the custom field specified in BioStar to the Employee Number in JT

Combine 3rd party fields - Set to Yes to importa combination of field name and code as field description when importing employees from Sage 300 / People. For example if Department name is “HR” in the Sage system, with code 1001. Without the entry set to Yes this will import as Description: HR, Short desc: 1001. With the entry set to Yes it will import as Description: 1001 - HR, Short desc 1001

CWBioTable - When connecting to a CWBio database use this ini entry to say which table to look at in the CWBio database to get clockings from.

Delete Device Clockings - Set to No if you do not want to delete the clockings on the device after the clockings have been imported.

Device Log - This file will be created each time the JT Engine is started, and record its actions in more detail.

DSV Blue Font - designate blue text on the Daily Summary View to represent a non-working day, or a weekend.

Extra Log - If set to Yes this will add additional entries in the Third party exception log for employees in the file where no changes were made in JT. If employee data in file matches JT details exactly, an entry in the log will reflect employee number, name, surname -> No changes

Import Date Format - Used to specify what format the date should be. Default format is: ddmmyyy

Import File Format - If using ‘Import File’ as a clocking source (Import Clockings tab) this option can be used to specify the format of the import file.

Import Reverse IO - Used to reverse the clocking direction if necessary when importing from an external database.

Inactivity Check Midnight Only - If Shift or Access Group Restrictions are in use, set this to Yes to only check for removals at midnight

JobLog - Only works with Impro. Reads event code greater than 40 or event code between 9 and 13, exports transactions, merged with very next employee transaction, to a text file.

JS Web Batch Size - The number of clockings to include in each import batch from JS Webserver. Default value is 200.

Max Threads - Used to specify the maximum number of threads to run simultaneously, default is 30 without this entry.

Paxton Import - If the import from the Paxton database must use the employee number field rather than user ID, then add this line.

Portal Import Denied Clockings - Set to Yes to import ‘Denied’ status clockings from Portal as access clockings in JT (will still result in missing clockings).

Portal Import - If the import from the Impro Access Portal database must use Employee Number rather than Employee ID, then use =TagCode. Use =EmpNo if the import is from the Impro Access Portal database must use Employee Number (MD_VALSTRING = 1 in Master_Detail Table) rather than Employee ID.

Portal Link - This option is dependent on how controllers are setup in Impro.

Report Job Selection - If the job costing module is enabled, this option controls the number of jobs available to select from when running a job costing report.

Sigma Reboot - Set to Yes if a Sigma device needs to be rebooted due to it regularly going into a frozen state. Note that the device will be rebooted at midnight.

Set Exported in IXP400 - Set to No if you do not want to mark clockings as exported in the Impro IXP400 database.

Skip API Ping - prevent JT performing initial licence server check on launch

Time Manager - Set to Yes if the import file is a Time Manager format export file that was made in SoftCon. Then set the import location in Jarrison to Import File and select the file as normal.

Transfer Batch Size - Use this entry to reduce the batch size if there is difficulty sending profiles to devices

Update Details From Imported File - Set to True if you would like employee information to update from the clocking import file.

Upgrade Bypass Backup - Set this to True for sites that cannot create the C:\JT-Backup folder due to IT restrictions and upgrading is required. Please ensure that you do have a backup first! It is recommended to ensure other means of successful backup before applying this option.

Virdi Import - If the ‘Employee ID’ should rather be used as the JT employee number when importing from a Virdi database, use the Employee ID option.

To map the import of data from a Virdi database to the JT database differently, modify these options as needed:

  1. Virdi Link cPost (default is Site)
  2. Virdi Link cStaff (default is Occupation)
  3. Virdi Link cOffice (default is Department)

ZK Import - Use the Log option if the import is from a ZK Access 5.3 database. Use LogId if badge number is linked to PINs in the transaction table. Use LogDoor if the ZK SQL database does not have a table called Machines.

ZK Reboot - Used to send reboot commands to ZK devices per specified interval. The numeric value is minutes.

ZK Transfer Timeout - Used for the timeout when sending templates to ZK devices.

‘Rebuild SQL Views’ may be required after a system restore or similar circumstances involving a disruption to the database set.
