Clock in and out overview
Related topicsIndividual employees and field crews can use the clock in and out feature to track their time on the project, including rest and lunch breaks. This data can then be converted to pending timecards and later approved by financial admins.
About clocking in and out
- To access the clock in and out functions, use the stopwatch icon (
). It's available at the Sage Construction Management top menu and on the mobile app's home page. - If the feature is enabled, all security roles allow users to clock in and out.
- Clock in and out entries can be converted to pending timecards as follows:
- Users can convert their own entries.
- Crew leaders can convert all their crew members' entries.
- Administrators can convert anyone's entry.
- Clocking in requires only a project and prime contract reference to streamline data entry. When these entries are converted to pending timecards, additional information, such as payroll item and job cost code, will be required.
- Comments entered when clocking in or out are saved only if users have location tracking enabled in their browser.
- If geofencing is enabled, the clock in and clock out entries that are outside of the geofenced area are marked with a red asterisk. You can use the location pin icon (
) next to each entry to view the user's geolocation.
Before you begin
- The clock in and out feature is disabled by default. Administrators can enable it using the Do you wish to use Clock In / Out for Timecards? option in Settings (
) > Feature Settings > Time & Expenses. - Make sure the project's prime contract is approved and has a status date.
- Users must enable location tracking in their browser to save comments.
