The pr~ent invention rela~e~ to time and attendance

p~rticularly, but not by way of limitation~ to a novel
r~porting sy~tem with a grently increa~ed c~pacity ~hich i~
p~rticularly uaeful in tim~ ~nd attendance reporting.
2. ~ackaround Art.
While the pre~ent invention i8 descri~ed with ~peoiflc
referen~e to time and attendance ~y~tems, it will be
understood by tho~e skilled in the art that it i8 applicable
a~ well to ~any other t~pes of controlle~ acces~ r~ituations.
~ ime and attendance ~y~tem~ are widely u~ed in ~
number of w~rkplace situation~ and, in the paet, almo~t
universally employed one or more time clocks into which
employee~ in~erted their time carde when arriving ~t and
leaving work ~nd whr~n takin~ lunch and coffee ~reak~, etc.
T~e clock~ imprinted the time cardQ with the current tlm~,
the c~rds were periodic~lly collected, and ~he information
thereon wa~ manually taken off and u~ed for purpo~es of
paying the employee~ a~d for accumulating ~tati~tic~ data.
More recently, time clo~k~ have been connected to
~lnframe, or ~o~t, comp~ter, the time cards h~ro been
Qlim~nated~ and the emplo~ee3 insert th~ir identiication
cards having ba~ code or magnetic identifying ~tripe~

of the ho8t computer if any ~i~nificant n~mber~ of employees
are involved, ~ince each empl~yee will likely have ~ix to

In m~ny case~, auch memorie~ h~ve limited capacity ~o

employee, the number o~ hours an employee i~ to work before
before coffee and lunch hreak~, the length of cof ee ~nd

that particul~r time clock t~rminal to clock into An
a~ociated dep~rtment or joh ~ite. All the forogoing
~cheduling r~strictions are subject to ch~n~e for
i~dlvidual~ employeee or groupQ of employee~. Additianally,
in a l~rge operation, there may be employees ~t~rting and
~topping work at different time4, which times may
periodically change, part-time employees must be
~commod~ted in ~he ~y~em, therc may be different rule~ ~or
~ion and non-un~on employees ~nd~or ealaried and hourLy
