We use the Time Clock and the Shop Floor workbench in IFS. Our operators clock in on the Time Clock and then clock into and out of jobs on the shop floor workbench.
Sometimes the operator is clocked into a job for several hours but the Duration is reported as zero. What can cause this?

The duration calculation also depending on the Site Setting “Calendar Consideration”, if the entire time is to be considerd, the setting should be set to “All Time”
Calendar Consideration in the Site/Extended Site Info/Manufacturing will decide which time intervals between the start time and end time of the clocking should be considered for the calculation. Possible values are:
Finally, the Calendar or the Work Schedule which should be used to extract time will be decided according to the following hierarchy:
If the person connected to the employee is not defined as a resource in a labor class:
If the person connected to the employee is defined as a resource in a labor class:
To avoid hard stops for the operator when reporting, the calendar of the labor class will act as the last resort if Use HR Schedule is selected, but no valid schedule is found and no resource calendar is defined for the person either.
We have it set to All Time, but are getting zero duration. If I read this right, with it set to All Time the section about what calendar to use is irrelevant, correct? Is there anything else that would cause it to record no time when it is set to All Time?
It turns out this was caused by the check box “Base Labor Result on Attendance”. We unchecked that and the problem went away. One downside to this setting. If the operator Clocked out of IFS without clocking out of the job, the labor automatically stopped, but the machine time did not.
