Ok VI v4.50 perform logic experts - please tell me what KRONOS_FORMAT_START means, and where can I find it in the MAS90 folder structure. Is it in PR or VI or hidden somewhere. How can I see what it is doing?

In general in legacy, 3 areas of Perform: Job level (Configuration tab), Record Level (Records tab), Field Level (Data tab). Your screen shot is at Job Level but Record and Field level may also be relevant depending on what you're trying to troubleshoot. KRONOS_FORMAT_START is a block of code (not a file) inside the PRWVI2 program located in the mas90\PR folder. On my 4.50 PU6 that block is checking the P/RABC (ABC=company) record in SY0CTL at 35,1 to see if J/C is integrated in P/R Options. In short it sets a J/C integration flag and nothing else. There are some other blocks in PRWVI2 like KRONOS_VALIDATE_ADDL_RECORDS and KRONOS_ADDL_RECORDS that appear to do more stuff but they aren't in your screen shot. Maybe they are referenced in the Peform button under Records tab or Data tab.

Thanks for your response @AlnoorCassim What I'm trying to do is upgrade a client (does NOT use J/C) that imports time from KRONOS into SAGE 100 ERP STD Payroll using the VI job created by SAGE Software. I am moving from version 4.50 to v2015 PU#1. Can I assume that all the blocks of code in program PRWVI2 that was in version 4.50 are also in PRWVI2 in version 2015? I am having a problem reading in the valid Dept. No. which is at field position 04,2 in my ASCII source file. The Employee No that starts in position 06,7 is reading ok. The blocks of code that reference KRONOS I see in the upgraded v2015 VI job are: KRONOS_VALIDATE_ADDL_RECORDS KRONOS_ADDL_RECORD Also can you tell me what block of code DEPT_PART_OF_EMPLOYEE_NO in PRWVI2 is trying to accomplish. Thanks for your help.

I don't have a v2015 handy but comparing 4.50 to v2014 it appears to be the same. The DEPT_PART_OF_EMPLOYEE_NO appears to be a way to figure out the Dept No from the Employee No alone. It expects to find a TEMP field called TEMP17 (string) that is referencing an Employee No then reads that against PR1 file. Thru an alternate key it find the Dept No and assigns TEMP17 to both the Dept No + Employee No. It sounds this block would be assigned as Field Perform Logic for DEPARTNMENT_NO in the Data tab. It also seems like a bunch of other TEMP fields need to be set for KRONOS. I've attached a text copy of PRWVI2 for you so you can see that in the comments in the beginning. These routines you mentioned are expecting TEMP fields set in a certain way: KRONOS_VALIDATE_ADDL_RECORDS KRONOS_ADDL_RECORD I don't think this really helps you and I'm afraid P/R imports and P/R itself is not my forte at all. Unless someone here has done a KRONOS import for 2015, I suggest calling Sage Support and asking for Scott Brady.

Thanks @AlnoorCassim - Your information is very helpful!
