Working with calendar
Date fields can be filled either by picking from the calendar or by typing. Typing is much faster once the date is known — the calendar is for looking, not for entering.
Typing a date
Select the field and type the digits in the order the date is displayed in. The separators do not have to be typed; the field inserts them.
Which order applies depends on the regional settings of the computer, not on ZeeBORN:
This is worth checking once on an unfamiliar workstation. 05/03 means the fifth of March on one machine and the third of May on another — a date that ends up a month or two out is almost always this.
Picking from the calendar
Open the calendar on the field. The arrows either side of the heading move one month back or forward.
For a date further away, work upwards rather than clicking through the months: click the heading and the calendar switches to the months of that year, click it again for the years. Choose the year, then the month, then the day.
Time fields
A time is entered as hh:mm in the 24-hour clock. Where a record has a date and a time — the start of an off-hire, the moment of an incident — they are separate fields, and both matter for the calculations built on them.
