There is a page on our mainframes where daily marks can be done, we just don't do them in our terminal or any on our division that I am aware of.
Ours is similar. The daily mark ONLY applies to NP (Former Northern Pacific) jobs. The GN side has regular assigned employees. Our terminal is split GN/NP after the merger in 1970. We were all GN until then, but that is WAY before my time!
