Time Log Management
Regular Review Schedule
- Daily: Check Live Attendance and time logs for missing check-outs or obvious errors.
- Weekly: Scan time logs (filter by date range, employee, or department) for missing punches, duplicates, or unusual patterns.
- Monthly: Cross-check time logs with shift data and payroll inputs (hours, overtime) before closing the period.
Correction Policies
- Define who can edit or add time logs (e.g. managers, admins) and when (e.g. same day, within 48 hours).
- Prefer editing existing entries when times are wrong; use Add for missed check-in or check-out.
- Document corrections outside the app if your payroll or audit process requires it (e.g. who changed what and when).
Location & Verification
- Location is required for check-in when your organization uses it; the app captures where the employee checked in.
- Rely on PIN and location as the main verification. See Troubleshooting Time Clock for common time clock issues.
Data Accuracy
- Ensure employees check in and check out correctly. Remind them to check out at end of shift.
- Correct missed or wrong punches promptly so hours, payroll, and reports stay accurate.
- Use filters (employee, department, date range) in Time logs to verify data before using it for payroll or reports.
