I have discovered the ESS Portal/Web Clock is blocked from Auto Populate via Google Chrome (and I assume all browsers). My clients employees would benefit from having the information saved into the Login ID field, so they do not need to type it in everytime they sign in. If there was an amend to the URL that allowed us, or the client, to populate the User ID and share that with the employee, the browser could display the username by default.
This most likely will not be implemented in the existing portal. It will be considered for implementation in future employee portals.
