Transfer Function Configuration

The <functions id="transfer"> section controls the functions that are available when:

  • Employees click the Transfer button.
  • (Clock+ only) In the Supervisor Mode menu, supervisors click the Transfer Selection button.

To enable access to these functions, you also need to enable the transfer_menu function in the <functions id="functions"> section of the clock’s config file. See Function Configuration.

Some of these functions have additional attributes:

  • scroll_list: Determines whether employees performing a transfer can select details from a list, or whether they have to enter the transfer code. Enable with scroll_list="yes".
  • sort_order: Determines how the clock shows transfer options in lists. Set as asc for ascending order, desc for descending order, or none for no specific order.

Each time that an employee selects a project that contains child projects, the clock shows the child projects on a new screen.
  • <respect_clock_org_assignment>: Restricts projects based on the clock’s org unit assignment. Set to yes so that when employees perform project transfers, the clock shows only projects that are assigned to the same org unit that the clock is assigned to.
