Data Formatting

You can format your event data (ie: change its value, substitute variables into it, etc) prior to each event being saved.

To format the event data for all Clock In, Start Task, and Present events, specify the "format" option in your screen details.

To format the event data for Clock In events only, specify the "informat" option in your screen details.

To format the event data for Start Task events only, specify the "taskformat" option in your screen details.

To format the event data for Clock Out events only, specify the "outformat" option in your screen details.
