To Add a Technician Time Stamp
In instances where the Technician has forgotten to end their day, you may need to add Time Stamps to the system to make corrections, as there will be times that a Time Stamp can not be altered or deleted due to the status of the previous line.

The system will automatically turn the next code into an SD (Start Day) if possible.
