Employee Messages

  1. Click on the Add Employee Message link located directly to the right of the IQ 1000 Employee Messages header. The "Message Info" screen opens on the right.

  2. Put a check mark in the Default Message field if you would like this message to be the default message that is displayed when all other messages are expired, or haven't activated yet. Note that with the default message option selected, the option to enter a date range for this message disappears. See Message Precedence for information on which messages take precedence over others.

  3. Enter a start and end date into the Date Range field if you would like this message to be displayed for a limited time only. Enter the dates either by manually typing them into the appropriate fields, or by clicking on the  icon and selecting the dates from a calendar.

  4. Use the Employee field to select the employee for whom this message is intended. The message will appear when the employee punches in or out at the time clock.

  5. Use the Message field to enter the desired message. The message may contain a maximum of 21 characters.

  6. Click on the [ADD] icon to add the employee message.
