The shop activity screen allows you to view who is clocked on to a job, what job they are currently working on, and how long they have been assigned to that job. However, you were not able to edit anything from this screen. It was a read only that gave you the details mentioned above. Starting in version 7.2.7.41, we have added a few new features for this screen.
Indirect Jobs
Mechanics that are on a lunch break or who are clocked in to an indirect job, also now show up in the Current Activity Screen. This will allow you to see your entire shop activity. Who is available and you is currently doing what in your shop.
Ability to Clock of Mechanics
You can now clock mechanics off that forgot to sign off for the day. At the top, there is now an End Shift button. You can highlight and employee, select end shift and then, depending on your user access rights, sign off the mechanic.
Post to Line
You can also now post parts, from the current activity screen, to a job that a mechanic is clocked on to. Just select their job, hit Post Line at the top and post your parts.
