Kronos 6.1 Upgrade Central
Information on the Upgrade, Training Schedule and Documentation
What Happened?
Kronos was upgraded to version 6.1 over the weekend of July 15-17, 2011. Two features of the upgraded system are particularly helpful:
- Employees are able to punch in/out and transfer time on the existing Cisco phone system.
- Managers are able to look at a website icon and quickly view a list of employees with missed punches or other exceptions, making it easier to spot and resolve timecard issues.
What Has Changed?
Time clocks (or badge readers) will remain in the highest volume areas (such as dining halls and King Library) while other time clocks will be replaced with Cisco phones in common areas and in offices. Employees who currently use the Kronos website to punch in/out or transfer time can continue to use the website after the upgrade.
Who Is Impacted?
Hourly employees (Classified, Student and Hourly Unclassified) who use Kronos and Kronos managers are impacted by the upgrade.

Training Sessions
Attend one of the hands-on training sessions held in Upham Hall, room 316. Registration in TRAIN is required for sessions after July 31, 2011.
- Employees should register for the Special Topics session Employee Kronos Upgrade Training (Summer 2011) with the workshop code KRONEMP11.
- Managers should register for the Special Topics session Manager Kronos Upgrade Training (Summer 2011) with the workshop code KRONMGR11.
