In response to valuable user feedback, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our new “Clock In Locations” feature. This functionality allows admins to see the location where employees clock in, adding a layer of accountability and helping ensure that clock-ins happen only when employees are physically at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"auto<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Why This Feature Matters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Users have expressed a need to verify the locations of clock-ins to prevent issues such as employees clocking in from unauthorized locations. With this feature, admins can now monitor clock-in locations, addressing concerns about time theft and ensuring that all clock-ins occur at the designated work locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How It Works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When an employee clocks in using the mobile app, they will be asked to share their location. If the location is provided, it will be recorded and stored in the time card for admin review. It\u2019s important to note that we only capture the location at the moment of clock-in and do not track the employee\u2019s location continuously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enabling and Using the Feature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Admins can enable this feature in the settings under “Record clock-in location”. When turned on, employees will see a confirmation modal when they clock in, informing them that their location will be recorded. This step ensures transparency and gives the employee an opportunity to share their location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the option is turned off, the clock-in process remains unchanged, without the location confirmation step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Admin View and Monitoring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For admins, clock-in locations can be viewed on a map, showing all employees\u2019 clock-in points. Each employee’s avatar is displayed at their clock-in location. Clicking on an avatar will highlight the employee on the map, showing details of their clock-in. If an employee has clocked in multiple times, all locations will be displayed, and admins can click on each to see specific details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical Applications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This feature is particularly useful for teams working remotely or in the field. It ensures that everyone is where they need to be at the start of their shift, enhancing both accountability and operational efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We Value Your Feedback<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As with all our features, your feedback is crucial. Please let us know if you find the “Clock In Locations” feature helpful and if there are any enhancements you would like to see. Your input helps us continue to improve our tools to better meet your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
