Time overview

The Time workspace related to this reference article.

Time records when employees start and stop work, breaks, pay codes, and related service work. The employee-facing clock handles ordinary activity; managers correct exceptions and review a week; the underlying time-clock entry preserves the audit trail used for payroll and labor analysis.

Employee time entry

Use Time Clock to confirm the signed-in employee and current state before clocking in or out. An open entry must be closed before another clock-in can begin. If no employee is linked to the user, an administrator must correct the employee/user relationship rather than recording time under another account.

Manager review and correction

Use Time Manager to select an employee and week, review each day, add a missing punch, or correct time, break minutes, pay code, status, and notes. Use the Time Clock Entry article when reviewing a specific saved interval. Managers can export payroll time only for the departments they manage; superusers can review all departments.

Timekeeping controls

Do not “round away” unexplained gaps or overlaps. Confirm the work date, local time, overnight shift behavior, break, pay code, and whether a service order should receive the labor. Record a note for corrections according to company policy. Finish exception review before payroll is calculated so payroll does not become the place where timekeeping errors are hidden.
