Enable Transfer Functions

You can configure access to individual transfer functions that are available for employees in the All clock functions dialog box on the Dayforce Clock Pro and Clock+.

Important: You shouldn’t enable the schedule transfer function if your time entry policy is configured to auto-inject schedule transfer clock entries (that is, when the Auto Inject Segments From Schedule checkbox is selected in Pay SetupTime Entry Policy). See Main Settings in the Dayforce Implementation Guide.

To enable individual transfer functions in Dayforce:

  1. Go to Site SetupClock Configuration.
  2. In the Device Type drop-down list, select Dayforce Touch / Pro or Clock+.
  3. In the second drop-down list, select Unified.
  4. Select a clock configuration group.
  5. Copy any of the following tags from the config file to the override config file, in the <functions id="functions"> section:
  6. Copy
    <function id="combined_transfer" key="" punchtype="Combined_Transfer" icon="work_transfer" />
    <function id="docket_quantity" key="" punchtype="Quantity" icon="quantity" />
    <function id="docket_transfer" key="" punchtype="Docket" icon="docket_transfer" />
    <function id="labor_metrics_transfer" key="" punchtype="Labor_Metrics_Transfer" icon="labor_metrics" />
    <function id="project_transfer" key="" punchtype="Project" icon="project_transfer" />
    <function id="schedule_transfer" key="" punchtype="ScheduleTransfer" icon="transfer" />
  7. Note: These function tags have additional attributes that aren’t listed in the XML above. Further, the attributes differ slightly for the Dayforce Clock Pro and Clock+.
  8. Edit the attributes in the transfer tags. For more information about these attributes, see Function Configuration.
  9. Save your changes, and then validate and publish.
