1.0 Setup and Requirements 1.1 Pre-Setup Requirements In order to make use of the WorkLinx Mobile application on your device, there are a few minimum requirements from a contract perspective that must be taken into account. First, your organization s database must be in an environment hosted by VCPI. Self-hosted clients will need to be migrated to VCPI in order to take advantage of the application or wait until a future update of the application that can be hosted remotely. Mobile takes advantage of the benefits of the Employee Self Service (ESS) module and expands upon them. Many of the functions within it are directly related to those that you will find in ESS and therefore your organization must also have purchased the SmartLinx Employee Self Service module in order to take advantage of Mobile. 1.2 App Setup Figure 1 - WorkLinx Mobile Icon The Mobile app is a small application that is easily downloaded from Google Play or the Apple App Store. This download is Free, though your organization will have to have purchased licenses from SmartLinx in order to make use of it. 1.3 WorkLinx Setup Once you have downloaded the Mobile app and your organization has received its license agreement from SmartLinx, you are ready to setup your employees to enter the world of WorkLinx Mobile. There are two steps that are required in order to give your users proper access to the application. First, ESS Accounts must be setup for each employee, if not already completed. The second step is to setup e-mail addresses for each user. 1.3.1 ESS User Setup To setup an employee or group of employees in the Employee Self Service module, you will need to go to the Employees screen in one of the main applications (SO, TA, BA or HR), accessible from the View Menu or by clicking the Figure 2 - Employees Screen Employees icon. As usual, always make sure you are at the appropriate company level in the Org Pane. Once you ve reached the Employees screen, click on the Active Employee Count, as indicated in Figure 13. Page 2 of 19

Within the Active Employees screen, use the dropdown in the top right to select the Create ESS Accounts option. Figure 3 - Active Employees Screen Figure 4 - ESS Accounts 3 2 1 The ESS Accounts screen allows you to select which screens/rights your employees should have access to as well as which employees will be able to access the module. To create accounts: 4 1. Select the type of default password 2. Select the screens that should be active 3. Check off functions that should be active 4. Check off each employee you wish to give an ESS account to 5. Click the Create ESS Accounts button 5 All checked employees will now have accounts that can be accessed using their Badge ID and the default password you selected in step 1. 1.3.2 E-mail Setup Finally, e-mail addresses will need to be setup for each user. This can be accomplished from the Employee Record screen by clicking on the employee s name on most screens within WorkLinx, including the Employees screen shown above. Once in the Employee s Record, click on the tab. Within the Contacts tab, enter the employee s e-mail address into the field named Email 1. This will allow them to reset their password themselves, without contacting Administration or IT. Figure 5 - Email Fields (Employee Record - Contacts Tab) Page 3 of 19

2.0 Logging In Once all of the preliminary work, such as creating user accounts, has been completed the employees should be able to log into the Mobile application. When first logging into the application, the SmartLinx splash screen should display as seen in the accompanying figure. After a moment, the splash screen will be replaced by the Login screen. Figure 7 - Mobile Splash Screen Figure 6 - Mobile ESS Icon 2.1 Logging In The Login Screen requires three pieces of information be entered into the BadgeID and Password fields in order to log you in properly. These include: your Badge ID, o followed by your company s Alias (i.e. kdrake@slx), and your Password. Once you have entered all three pieces of credentials into the BadgeID and Password fields, click on the button to continue. Figure 8 - Login Screen Page 4 of 19

2.1.1 Access Errors If you type in an incorrect BadgeID or Password, an error message will appear below the Password field stating Invalid Credentials. User cannot be Authenticated. Please attempt to reenter the information correctly. If you are unable to login with what you believe to be the correct credentials after multiple attempts, click on the Forgot account details? link below the error. Figure 9 - Login 2.1.2 Password Restoration Any user that has forgotten their password can have it reset by entering their BadgeID and E-mail Address into the screen that displays. It is important to note that this e-mail address must be identical to the one stored in the employee s Personnel Record. Those who have access to change personnel information within the ESS module can update their e-mail address as needed. Once both fields have been populated, click on the Restore button. A message will also appear indicating that an automated e-mail will be sent to the provided address with your password reset information. Figure 11 - Restore Forgotten Password Figure 10 - Password Reset Warning Page 5 of 19

Figure 12 - Sample Password Reset E-mail The e-mail sent will include a temporary password for the WorkLinx Mobile application. You should use this temporary password to attempt to login to the system. Once successfully logged in, Mobile will ask you to create a new password for your account. Type in a new password, which only you would know, into both the New Password field and the Confirm New Password field. Click the button. A warning message will appear indicating that your password has been changed. From this point forward, you will use this new password to login to Mobile. Figure 13 - Create New Password Please note this process will also change your ESS password. Figure 14 - New Password Message Page 6 of 19

2.2 PIN Assignment If this is the employee s first attempt to login to the application, they will be required to create a Personal Identification Number (PIN). The PIN allows the application to retain its security while allowing users to quickly log back into the app. Enter your preferred four digit PIN number into both the Create you PIN and Repeat your PIN fields and click the Go button. Please note you should use a different PIN than the one you use to unlock your phone. From this point forward, anytime you have left the application for a short time you will be asked to enter your PIN instead of your BadgeID and Password. Figure 15 - Create you PIN Beneath the PIN field, a message will display how many attempts you have to enter the correct PIN before the application locks you out. Figure 16 - Enter your PIN If you wish to change your PIN at any point, you can click on the Reset PIN link underneath the Attempts message. Clicking on the link will cause a message to pop up asking whether you would like to reset your PIN. Click the OK button to do so. This will log you out of the application and force you to login with your BadgeID and Password. Once logged back in, the PIN Creation screen will reappear and allow you to create a new PIN. Figure 17 - Reset PIN Message Page 7 of 19

2.3 Terms and Conditions The final step of the initial login to the application is to accept the Terms of Service agreement (TOS). This contains legalese that defines the policies and conditions for using the application and is required by any software you download. The Privacy Policy is also available by clicking on the tab labeled Privacy Policy. Click on the Accept button to continue into the application and begin your Mobile journey. Figure 18 - Terms of Service 3.0 Mobile Dashboard The Dashboard screen is effectively the Home screen of the application.

The Punches button displays both the type and the date/time of the last punch made. Clicking on the Punches button will open up the Punches screen and allow you to Punch IN or OUT for up to four different types of punches. Please note, punch types are configured by client and only applicable types will show within Mobile.
