Punch Clock - Time Sheet Rules

Notes:-
Punch Clock is a Web server (mbpunch.exe or mbpunch.dll) which runs inside the Minder directory. This is very different to the main Minder package, which is a Desktop application.
It needs to be installed as a service. Currently we do not recommend external port access to the server as the main Punch Screen doesn’t require a log in & hence un-secured. VPN access is fine though.
The server can run on a different port should 80 / 443 be assigned to something else.
You can run multiple ‘servers’ for different company employee’s on the one Windows server. ie Multiple Minder directories.
The web server is a ‘Compiled’ package, it doesn’t use Apache, IIS, PHP, Wordpress etc, so is immune to attacks on those platforms.
It’s recommended to use a DNS pointer, but using the IP address will work as well. Internal SSL certificates are planned for a later version, they can be done now, but are a bit messy.
The Web client browser can be almost anything, although the screens have not be optimized for phone’s, tablets should be fine. An old laptop in the factory running Linux / Firefox is ideal. Internally TSPlus / RDP is fine or the local Windows PC all works well.
The tables used by Punch Clock have fields for GPS co-ordinates etc ready for a ‘disconnected’ phone app to allow for site users.
Integration to the Job system is planned.
Integration to the Works Order system is planned.
A remote Phone App is next.
