Timecard GPS: New Administrator Settings (August 23, 2017 Update)

We have made a couple of changes to provide Managers and Administrators more control over what functionality they want to enable for their staff, specifically:

• Timesheet Signoff
• Task Search on Device
• Tracking During Breaks
• Clock-in Photo
• Editing Events through the mobile app

To enable or disable these features, please go to the Administration tab and select "Preferences" on the Basic section.

Scroll to the bottom of the settings and you will find the following options:

Make sure to enable or disable these features according to your company's needs and only if you need them!

Here is a brief description of each feature (click on the links to read the full article):

• Timesheet Signoff: give employees the ability to sign and approve their hours and have a Manager approve or decline, edit and resubmit these timesheets for re-approval.
• Task Search on Device: enable a search functionality within the Tasks List, so employees can punch in to tasks that have been uploaded to teams they don't belong to.
• Track During Breaks: when it's active, the app will continue to track the GPS location of the staff. If disabled, they won't be tracked during breaks.
• Clock In Photo: if checked, employees must take a picture to be able to clock in for the day.
• Event Edit on Phone: allow field workers to edit their punches.

If you need help understanding these features or you would like us to enable them for you, or if you just have some questions, please feel free to contact our support team here.
