The Work areas maintenance form in Head Office lets you create and manage work areas, which are used in the time and attendance data collected by Time Clock. Time and attendance data can be uploaded from the Cinema to Head Office.

Work area

Option	Allowed values	Description
Name	1–50 characters	The name of the Work Area. This is displayed when logging on in Time Clock and on Reports.
Std Cost Rate Per Hour	Any monetary value	The default wage rate paid for User working in the area. If there is no Rate Card record configured for a user in the relevant Work Area, the wage rate paid will default to the Std Cost Rate Per Hour. Note: If the Default Cost Rate configured on the user's maintenance form record is higher, that will be used instead.
Default Work Area	cleared selected	If the checkbox is selected, the Work Area will be the default. Note: Only one configured work area may have this option selected. If a record is saved with this field selected, all other records will have the Default Work Area field cleared.
Report Codes	1–20 characters	Report Codes can be used to create custom extracts of figures for a 3rd-party system.
Checks required for all orders	cleared selected	If the checkbox is selected, POS operators logged on to the Workstation must use Checks for all orders. This is useful for Workstations in Work Areas that are part of restaurant operations.
Default View	List Button Layout	Determines the default view of the Checks page of the Main Selling Screen: List - Checks and pre-defined Tab IDs are listed vertically, grouped by the Tab order they belong to. Button - Checks and pre-defined Tab IDs are displayed on large buttons. Layout - The Checks page displays a Table Layout Profile that gives a graphic representation of table locations.
Table Layout Profile	Any configured Table Layout Profile	Table Layout Profiles can be created to give POS operators a graphic representation of table locations. When the Checks page on POS is in Layout view, the selected Table Layout Profile will be used for the display.
Area to Display	Use Default Prompt on User Login Any Area configured for the selected Table Layout Profile	Table Layout Profiles can be configured with multiple Areas. For example, Restaurant, Bar. When the Checks page is viewed, the determined by this setting is shown by default. This allows workstations to be configured for use in particular areas. Use Default - Uses the area configured as the Default Area in the Table Layout Profile. Prompt on User Login - When a user logs in to POS, a prompt is displayed asking which area of the layout profile they would like to view. Any configured Area - Uses the selected area for all users on this Workstation. Note: POS operators can still use Link Buttons to manually navigate between areas, regardless of what is set here.
POS Profile	Any POS profile	When your staff log in to a workstation and select this work area, they'll see this POS profile. If you leave this option empty, they'll see the workstation's POS profile instead. Note: Staff log in to individual work areas by using Time Clock.
Use Seat Maps for Check	cleared selected	If the checkbox is selected, the Seat Map for cinema auditoriums can be used to start Checks or access existing Checks. Note: If this option is used the Show Tabs Seat Map POS button should also be enabled.
Seat Map to Display	Use Initial Screen Prompt on Create Tab Prompt on User Login	Determines which cinema auditorium's seat map is displayed by default when the Show Tabs Seat Map button is pressed: Use Initial Screen - the seat map of the Initial Screen as configured on the POS terminal's Workstation maintenance record is displayed when the button is pressed. Prompt on Create Check - when an initial Check is created, the server is prompted to select which Screen they would like to view. Note: This only occurs when an Initial Check is created. The server is not prompted again when additional Split Checks are created. Prompt on User Login - when a server logs in to POS, they are prompted to select which Screen they are working in. When the Show Tabs Seat Map button is pressed, that screen's seat map is displayed. This is particularly useful for a POS terminal servicing in-seat dining for multiple auditoriums.
