Employee Maintenance

Employee Maintenance allows you to add or remove Employees.

Each employee requires a Code, Password and must be assigned to a Security Group. The Code/Password/Security Group combination are used for the employee security functions, and this same employee record also tracks timeclock information. Thus, even if an employee will not be using the computer (a lower bay technician perhaps), he still needs to be assigned a Code and Security Group.

  • Employee Name Required.

  • Address Optional.

  • Zip code, City, State Optional.

  • Phone Optional.

  • Code Required. This is a number up to four digits in length. Note that the code is unique for that employee and cannot be used again. You can see the list of “Codes Used” next to the Code field.

  • Password Required. It can be any combination of letters or numbers, and is not case sensitive. It should be short enough for the employee to easily type and remember, but not so short that others can guess it. The password, regardless of length, will be masked with 10 asterisks.

  • Security Group Required. Assign the employee to the appropriate Security Group.

  • Language QuickTouch supports multiple languages, which so far are English, Spanish and French. Thus, when an employee uses his Code/Password to log onto the system, he will see the menus in the appropriate language. Contact Sage Support to enable this feature.

Other municipalities might require an 8 hour day, and some might require both. Choose the appropriate Overtime period, which most often would be a 40-hour workweek period.
