This is an optional feature that can be added to the software upon request. It allows to automatically add/update the fields below in Time & Attendance from Viventium that the data only has to be added/changed in Viventim and not in TA.

Field Add (new employee) Update (existing employee)
Employee ID Yes No
First Name Yes Yes
Middle Name Yes Yes
Last Name Yes Yes
Department Yes No
SSN Yes Yes
Hire Date Yes Only if missing (There isn't a hire date in the software yet)
Termination Date Yes Only if missing (If not currently terminated)
Pay Rate Yes Yes

The add/update can be scheduled to run at a regular interval even multiple times a day.

To do it manually at any time: To add in new employees manually, click on the Refresh Employees button. This will update your employee list to show any new employees from Viventium.

Troubleshooting

To test that the software can see employees changes on the api, select an employee and temporarily change their name (add a letter to their name), then click the Update From Viventium button to see if it changes it back to the original correct name.

To test that the software can see new employees on the api, select an employee and temporarily change their Employee ID (add a letter to their ID), then click the Refresh Employees button to see if it pops up this employee as a new employee.

If the software gives an error when running this report, it may be because the time on the local computer is off with more than 5 minutes, or because the Viventium service is temporarily not available.

Check this link to the Viventium service to see if it's available.
