The My Settings Screen

General tab:

IP Verification is a security feature to help prevent cross-site scripting exploits. Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs), most notably AOL, use an aggressive proxying system that may result in users being logged out of the TimeIPS system prematurely. If you use AOL or a similar ISP that has confirmed it does aggressive proxying, you may disable IP Verification.

The Enable IP Verification option prevents a username and password from being used simultaneously from two different IP addresses.

For users of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) with aggressive proxying systems, such as AOL, the Disable IP Verification option may be used to help prevent you from being logged out of TimeIPS prematurely.

Choose "Automatically Refresh" on the Automatically Refresh Status View option to automatically refresh the Employee Status View page every two minutes. Otherwise, select "Do not automatically refresh".

After choosing your preferences, click on the Save Settings button to save.

System notifications are notices about operational changes or actions needed in the TimeIPS system. These notifications can be sent to your e-mail as well as displayed when you log into TimeIPS.

Choose Send Notifications to E-mail if you want to receive an e-mail regarding operational changes or actions needed in the TimeIPS system.
TIP: Some examples of system notifications that might be sent are power outage and renewal notifications to Site Administrators, or notification to Payroll Administrators of missing settings for default accrual profiles.

Choose Do Not Send Notifications to E-mail to disable this option.

Choose Show non-critical notifications in sidebar to display unread non-critical notifications in the sidebar.
