A note about the new version of Dayforce

March 29, 2022 by Stacey, Craig

Hi, everyone!
First of all, if you currently use Dash (https://dash.anl.gov) to access Dayforce and are happy with that, just stop reading. There’s nothing of interest to you here and you’re using the approved and supported method for accessing Dayforce.
Okay, if you’re still reading, perhaps you don’t like using Dash for that, or you used to use our handy shortcut to use Dayforce in your browser. But recent updates to Chrome, Firefox, and Safari (in that order) meant that stopped working for you.
Well, the good news is it started working again as of today. The new version of Dayforce is (almost) all HTML and no Silverlight required. Yes, I said "almost". There are a handful of administrative/managerial functions that still need silverlight, and that means if you do that you need to go to Dash for those tasks. But, if you’re reading this far, chances are good you won’t be in that group.
If you want to use this entirely handy and entirely unofficial and unsupported shortcut: https://www.cels.anl.gov/dayforce is a good thing to bookmark. And if it doesn’t work you, just fall back to using Dash.
And, again, if you’re happy with Dash, you don’t need to change a thing (and you should have stopped reading after the first paragraph, shame on you).
Cheers!
