CalTime Upgrade to Version 8.1

CalTime was recently upgraded to version 8.1. Upgrading CalTime to the latest software secured system performance and discontinued the use of Adobe Flash Player which enabled CalTime to align with IT standards. Minimal changes were made to the look and functionality of CalTime. 

Key enhancements included:

• Adobe Flash Player has been discontinued and no longer required.
• Username and Sign out was relocated to the upper right of the CalTime webpage
• Supervisors and Global users access their own timecard from a dropdown list on the left (via a plus icon). A revised training video is now available for those that supervise and have a supervisor role in CalTime. While viewing the video, you may skip ahead to 5:22 (5 min., 22 secs.) to view how a supervisor may access their own timecard. 

There was no major changes to your existing CalTime procedures, there was no change to existing pay rules, or union configuration within CalTime including friendly names.   

System Outage during the upgrade and impact to RealTime employees that use a Personal computer:

During the upgrade, CalTime was unavailable during Friday November 8th -9th. Time-clocks (aka Kronos terminals) were still available during this time. However Supervisors will need to assist RealTime employees that record time in “RealTime” online (and not via a time-clock) via computer (i.e. students) with recording time for days worked during the outage. We thank you in advance for your assistance!
