Important Kronos Update

On Thursday, October 24, 2013 Financial Services and ITS will begin moving the KRONOS Time Card System to new servers on the Lakeside Campuses. The move will take place between 5:00 pm Thursday, October 24, 2013 and 8:00 am Monday, October 28, 2013.

Financial Services and ITS requests all departmental users logoff KRONOS by 4:00 pm Thursday, October 24, 2013.

For those employees who swipe at KRONOS Time Clocks, they should continue to use the clocks during the downtime. The punches will be stored in the clocks and will be sent to the time cards once the system is back online.

No time card approvals are required during the downtime.

As part of the move, the Kronos application will have a new URL. The new website is https://kronos.luc.edu

The new website will be available on Monday, October 28, 2013. You should continue to use the existing Kronos website until October 24th.

Please be sure to update your bookmarks to the new URL!

Also, we are excited to announce that the new Kronos site will now be available off campus without having to use VPN. Please note that you may need to update to the required version of Java installed on your machine to access the site. For help with Java, please contact the help desk.

All of the current functionality will remain the same, such as recording your start and stop times, as well as entering your exception hours, such as Sick, Vacation, Personal or Holiday time.

Documentation and manuals are available on-line at http://www.luc.edu/finance/fsdoc.shtml

If there are any questions, please contact the Kronos Help Desk at ext. 5-7444 (kronoshelpdesk@luc.edu) or the ITS Help Desk at 4-4444.
