Missed Punch Procedure

Send me an e-mail (treynold@indiana.edu) when you have read this blog post.

Several of you have recorded missed punches on your timesheets.  Good for you!  Please remember that whenever you record a missed punch, you must include a note explaining why you missed your punch.  Your note can be as simple as, "I forgot to clock in when I arrived."  Your note will make all IU Human Resources folks happy. And we like them happy.

Have questions about the missed punch procedure?  Just let me know.

Summer Employment

Welcome back, everyone! 

Now that spring break is over, my mind has turned to summer.  Do your plans include staying in Bloomington?  Would you like to continue your employment at BUSP over the summer?  If so, please let me know.  If working here this summer is a possibility, but you're just not sure yet, let me know that too.  Thanks for all!    --Terry

Jessica and Cesar Caught in the Act


Jessica and Cesar were Caught in the Act of doing a great job in dealing with an upset guest.  The guest was angry because she was banned from checking out books due to a large fine that she incurred over an interlibrary loan book.  Jessica showed great poise and friendliness in speaking with the irate guest before getting her supervisor.  While Jessica rounded up the supervisor, Cesar defused the situation further by speaking with the guest in Spanish, a skill they had in common.

Thank you, Jessica and Cesar, for your professional spirit and great presence of mind.  You handled a difficult situation in a superb way!

Missed Punches


Are you doing OK with the new timekeeping system?  One of the advantages of the new Kuali system is that you can fix some missed punches yourself: 

  • If you forget to clock in, you can add a missed punch before clocking out. 

  • If you forget to clock out, you can add a missed punch if it is within 24 hours of the clock-in time.  Note that missed punches can only be made on our service desk workstations, so if you remember you forgot to clock out when you're at home or on the other side of campus, you cannot fix that yourself.  In that situation, send me an e-mail just like you did in the good old days. 

Only one missed punch action is allowed per shift. 

Here's a quick video that will demonstrate adding a missed punch: http://www.fms.indiana.edu/kualitime/Missed-Punch.swf


Have questions or need help?  As always, see your supervisor.
