3 What is happening? A new version of Kronos is coming to all AWC employees. When is it coming? About the new version of Kronos: Old Kronos goes off line on 05/11/2015 at midnight EDT. New Kronos Version 7.0 becomes available on 05/18/15. What is it? New Kronos is browser-based (Internet Explorer) just like before. New Kronos is on the Cloud, not on an internal AWC server. Starting on 05/18/15, AWC employees who use a computer for Kronos today will log in to the new Kronos version at our AWC Sign-In page using their Windows User name and password Who is it for? How is this better? All employees, supervisors, payroll and leave processors will use the new Kronos effective 05/18/15. New features: The Kronos version has several new features, like canceling a previously approved time off request. VPN not required: You will no longer need to access Kronos using VPN. As long as you have internet connectivity, you will be able to log into Kronos. What about Java? To get ready for this change, you will need to get a new version of Java. From now on, the current version of Java will work with Kronos. You will not have to preserve a special version of Java to run Kronos. As long as your Java is up-to-date, Kronos will run normally. Watch your inbox for instructions and information about deleting your old version of Java and installing the current version. Welcome to Kronos in the Cloud Trainers Page 3 of 22
