Read from External Punch File

(Maitre'D 2003, from Service Pack 7 and later versions of Maitre'D)

Time and Attendance

When using an external punch control application instead of Maitre'D's Time and Attendance module's punch clock feature, you can read from an external employee punch file in XML format, to see if a Time and Attendance employee is punched in or not in external employee punch control before allowing access to tables in Maitre'D.
Note: The Time and Attendance module of Maitre'D is required, but neither the Time and Attendance nor Payroll interfaces of Maitre'D are needed.
