# Employee Switch Jobs Using the Kiosk

The WorkEasy Kiosk allows employees to switch jobs during a shift when job costing is enabled. Job selection may occur at clock in or during a shift using the Transfer option. Available behavior depends on Reporting Hours, job costing settings, and clocking configuration.

## Before you begin

- You are currently clocked in.
- Job costing is enabled for your role.
- The kiosk displays job-related options.

If job selection or Transfer is not available and you believe it should be, contact your manager.

## Job selection at clock in

In some configurations, job selection appears immediately after Clock In.

Job selection appears at clock in when:

- Job costing is enabled.
- Show Job List on Devices is enabled.

### Skip Selection

- Skip Selection appears only when job selection is optional.
- When job selection is required, Skip Selection is hidden.

## Switch jobs during a shift

When allowed, a Transfer option appears on the kiosk action screen.

Transfer appears when:

- Job costing is enabled.
- Job selection is shown on devices.

## Select a job

Job selection may include a single job or multiple levels based on configuration.
