Administrator Options

If you download and install a new version of Job Timer (v2.1.28 or later) You will have a new function added to your program. When you click on this new feature then you will be required to choose a password, then press "Change" then this box will not appear again until you request it, if you choose not to enter in a password, then the program will continue to bring this box up until you have chosen a password.The function of this "Administrator Options" is to disable parts of the program to employees. We will now discuss what these functions do.

click on "Tools" and then "Administrator Options" This will pull up an Password dialogue box.

When you have chosen your password, it stored this password in the programs memory. You will be required to enter in this password now so you can access the Administrator Options Window.

The two buttons at the top are designed to do a Quick lockout or Normal functions.

1. Normal is the default settings, there is nothing locked out and the program will operate normally.

2. Lock out was pre determined under a condition when you have an employee that you don't need to have total access to the prices or some of the functions of the program that would change or alter the out come of the invoice.

The rest of the buttons are as follows:

Hide Prices

This will shut down or hide the prices of the project, and you will not be able to change or alter the prices. Click on "Show Prices" to gain access to these functions again.

Hide Options

This function will disable the "Options" functions of the program, this way you cannot change any of the program settings. Click on "Show Options" to enable these functions back to their normal state.

Hide Preferences

This function will disable the "Preferences" functions of the program, this way you cannot change any of the program settings. Click on "Show Preferences" to enable these functions back to their normal state.

Disable Paths

This will disable the programs ability to change any program path that you have entered in so an employee cannot change any path that you have already set. (Program paths are the paths that you set up to do a "Quick Launch" with.)

Advanced and Simple Modes

Simple Mode will give you the option to have just a simple timer without all the features that Job Timer has to offer, lets face it not everyone needs to have all those features. Just like one of my customers said "I just want a simple Job Timer". Well you got it!

Advanced Mode is for those who want all the features that came with Job Timer.
