Clock In and Out of a Shift

Who this guide is for

Tradies and Apprentices. Supervisors, Sole Traders, and Business Owners can also clock in and out on their own assigned shifts. Admin and Finance roles are not scheduled as shift workers.

Overview

Record the time you start and finish a shift so the timesheet entry for that shift is created and closed automatically.

Before you start

You need a shift assigned to you for today, visible on the Dashboard schedule stream.

Clock behaviour follows the Timesheet entry mode set in Business Settings → Site. Hours mode hides the clock controls (your time is entered manually as hours per shift). Start-and-end-times mode shows the Clock in / Clock out buttons described below.

Steps

Clock in

1. Open the Dashboard and find today’s shift.
2. Open the assigned shift card.
3. Select Clock in. The shift card turns light green to show the active state.

Clock out

1. Open the shift card.
2. Select Clock out. The active state is removed and the timesheet entry closes.

What happens next

A timesheet entry is created when you clock in and closed when you clock out. The entry becomes part of your week’s timesheet, which you submit for approval at the end of the week — see Submit Your Timesheet for the Week. If you forget to clock in, add a manual timesheet entry against the shift.
