  8. (Optional) Configure worktags that you want to associate with all time tracking events entered on the Time Kiosk app.
    The worktag values you configure on the Time Kiosk take precedence over worktag values that populate from the time entry template or time entry code. You don’t need to add worktags to the app when you:
    • Don’t use worktags.
    • Want to use the worktag values configured as defaults in the time entry template or time entry code.
    The app supports these worktags:
    • Cost Center
    • Location

      • View Cost Center
      • View Location

      OK
      .
    4. From the related actions menu of the cost center or location, select
      Integration IDs
      View IDs
      .
    5. Copy the Workday ID.
      Share it so that you can access it from the app.
    6. As you enter worktag information on the tablet, consider:
    Option Description
    Cost Center
    Workday ID that you copied from the integration ID of the
    View Cost Center
     report.
    If you leave this field empty, the
    Cost Center
     worktag will populate with the value in the time entry template.
    Location
    Workday ID that you copied from the integration ID of the
    View Location
     report.
    If you leave this field empty, the
    Location
    worktag will populate with the value in the time entry template.
