LionClock 2011 Installation Instructions

       

Note: If you currently use an older version of our software such as version 1.xx or 2.xx, please read this important information about upgrading to this new version.

If you have Windows NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista or Windows 7 it is very important to be logged in as Windows administrator before installing LionClock. Otherwise, Windows may not allow some system files needed by our software to be registered.

1) Locate LionClock's installation file you have downloaded. The name of the file is lionclock_setup.exe

2) Double-click it and follow the instructions displayed by the setup wizard.

3) At the end of the installation process click Finish

4) Go to Start - Programs - LionClock 2011 to run the program.

5) After selecting what license type you would like to use, you will be asked to create an administrator password. Think of a combination of 6 to 10 letters and numbers that is hard to guess. Enter the password twice in the message box on the screen and click OK. Store your password in a safe place since you have to use it to activate LionClock administrator functions.

6) Now, activate the administrator functions by going to File - Activate Administrator Functions

7) Before you can use LionClock, you have to adjust some of its options according to the payroll rules of your company. To do that, go to Manage - Options menu.

8) The options window will appear. On the first tab called Reports, enter your company's name and address.

9) On the second tab called Interface check the Require employees to enter their personal ID numbers option if you want your employees to enter their PIN (personal ID number) before they can clock IN and OUT.

10) On a tab called Payroll adjust your rounding and overtime settings.

11) If you would like to enable LionClock security features, go to the last tab called Security.

12) Once you have adjusted all the options, apply them by clicking the Apply button.

13) Now, use the Manage - Add An Employee menu to add your employees to LionClock's employee list. When creating a new employee, don't forget to enter his/her name, assign him a numerical PIN number (that will be required to clock IN and OUT), a badge number, adjust the hourly rates (or salary) and his social security number.

14) Once you have created all the employees, you have to disable the administrator functions by going to File - Deactivate Administrator Functions. This way, no one will be able to access the administrator functions except the manager.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed LionClock. If you need help with the installation, don't hesitate to contact us.
