– Setup Wizard 3-31
Do you want to import employees from Access Control?
Answer Yes to this question if you want to use this built-in import feature. This feature allows
you to import Time and Attendance employee information from the Access Control database
directly into the Time & Attendance software.
Note: This feature is only active if you selected in Step 1: General Setup Yes to integrate
Access Control. Also, the Access Control module has to be activated.
1. To use this feature, select the Tag Holder Type from the dropdown menu choices of Access
and Time or Access only .
Note: Employees imported with the Tag Holder Type of Access only will be marked in the
Access Control database as Access and Time.
2. Press the Find button (see figure) to search for the Access Control database, you will need
to know the name and location of the import file.
Employees who cannot be imported will appear in the information message box indicated in red
with a description of why they failed to meet import criteria. Select the employees you desire
from the list of found employees by clicking in the “Select” column or check “Select All”. Press
the Run Import button and the employees will be imported into the Time Guardian database
with confirmation information appearing in the message box in blue (see figure for TG Plus
example).
Once complete, field’s specific to Time Guardian such as Schedule , Department , Wages and
Employee Type will have to be updated for the newly imported employees from Access
Control. These items can also be globally assigned.
