Record on a LABTRANS record whether the technician used the Pause or Stop button on Maximo Mobile

Currently there is no distinction between the LABTRANS record updated when the technician uses the Pause or Stop buttons as part of the timer functionality. They both write the Finish Date/Time and update the Hours. We would like to know when the Technician used the Pause button and when they used Stop buttons. Pause indicates that they intend to return to the work order or task they have been assigned. Stop indicates that they have either completed the task or work, or that they cannot complete it, and as a supervisor we would look to understand assignments that were stopped but where no reason had been given in the work log or the assignment or work order was not completed - it is something that we would need to chase with the technician, if it remained that way by the end of the shift.
