Timecard Use Case

I’m making a skuid page for a simple timecard use case. The top of the page has 2 buttons: clock-in and clock-out, both of which should be set to NOW. The bottom of the page simply displays a table of the data. Questions:

  1. For the clock-out, I can’t figure out how to query my model to give me the row of data from today that does not yet have a clock-out value and insert NOW. Doesn’t seem to hard in theory, but I am new to skuid. I’ve disabled the clock-in button so it can only be used once per day.

  2. I’d like to use a UI field to calculate the total time worked…can that be done with timedate fields?

Erica,

  1. Set your Clock-Out button to run multiple actions. Add a model on your timesheet object that returns one row. Set the conditions to return records for the current user and where the Time Out field is blank/none. On your button you will Query the new model, update the Time Out field with now, save the new model, and then query your timesheet model.

  2. Here is what the formula looks like to calculate the number of Hours:

IF(ISBLANK({{TimeOut}}),null,({{TimeOut}} - {{TimeIn}})/1000/60/60)

I have attached a sample page based on the Task object to demonstrate the solution.

Thanks,

Bill
