Client Installation:

1. Before you're able to access Kronos Workforce Central® you must install the Java 2 Runtime 
    Environment plug-in.  This plug-in will be pushed down to your local pc on the first initial logon.
2. Please follow the on-screen installation instructions and select the application defaults.
3. Once the installation is complete open the Windows Control Panel and double click on the Java
    Plug-in icon.
4. Go to the Browser Tab and un-check Microsoft Internet Explorer.  Click apply and exit.
    **By making this change it allows for older versions of Java to still run within Internet Explorer.  
       This step is very important for legacy applications such as Bridge to still function properly.

Logon Procedures:  

1. The password has been set to "password" by default. Once you logon, you will be instructed to 
  change your password to your choice. 
2. The new password must have a minimum of six characters.
3. Periodically, you will be instructed to change your password.

Using the Kronos Clock:

Instead of using the computer time stamp option, you can use the Kronos clock located in your campus cafeteria.
1. Hit the " * " key
2. Enter your 4 digit Employee number with leading zeroes
3. Hit the "enter" key

Note: The Kronos Workforce Central® HTML Client uses the time of the database server for the clock
         display and to record time stamps.  The recorded time is not the time of the computer you are using. 
         You cannot change the time recorded by adjusting the time on your pc.
