Field | Description |
Allow PIN use on Mobile device
|
If your company is licensed for Deltek Mobile Time, select this option to enable employees to log on to the Mobile Time application using a personal identification number (PIN). The PIN is automatically synchronized with the regular system password, but it cannot be used to log on to the desktop version of the Time Entry module.
Because the PIN is synchronized with the password, the PIN stands in for the password when users log on to Mobile Time. However, since it is only four digits, it is easier to enter it when logging on from a hand-held device.
After you enable this option, employees who wish to use a PIN must first enter it in the
PIN field of the Mobile Time User Options screen.
When an employee changes his or her system password, the PIN is automatically synchronized with it. However, should a logon attempt be made before the synchronization occurs, Deltek Mobile Time requires the user to enter the system password instead.

Field | Description |
Time Zone

The drop-down box displays both the time zone code and description from the Time Zone table delivered with Deltek Workforce. The default is "Eastern Standard Time (America/New_York)."
The value selected in this drop-down box determines the server's time zone. The system will compare it with the user's time zone when performing the following edits:
- Future hours and revision audits while saving of the timesheet
- The default date in the criteria tab on the Floor Check screen
- The default date in the calendar when the Open function is selected on the timesheet
- The timesheet period that should display when selecting the Timesheet screen

When the Deltek Workforce is shipped, “America/New_York” is set as the default application server time zone code.
