The Pause option is available when the person assigned a task needs time tracking to stop for various reasons whether it is to take a lunch break or because the task requires time when the employee will not be working on it (letting the paint dry, waiting for a part).
1. Whether it is a housekeeper/room attendant or a maintenance task, anytinme a task is started, there is a "Pause" feature the employee can use. This status will reflect on the employee task list as well as on the Front Desk Dashboard as well
2. When the task is started by the employee, a time stamp will display on the dashboard.
3. When pause is selected by the employee, the status will change and the time stamp will disapeared. However, the total time already elapsed will display.

Because the time stamp disapear, it is important, for tracability, to enter a note about the pause.
4. When the employee starts again the task, the new time stamp will display.

In the exemple above, a second paused happened that increased the total elapsed time to 7 minutes.
5. Once the task is completed, the Start and the Finished time displayed will be from the last time frame. However, the total time elapsed will include everytime the task was running between pauses.

The final screen will not reflect the time elapsed between each start and each pause. It will need to be a known assumption or asking the associate if the Pause function was used during the performance of the task and make sure to instruct any associate to use the Notes field when using the Pause function.
