Clocking in and out

Clock-in and clock-out records create the timesheet evidence managers review later. Employees should use the attendance flow at the start and end of work.

Before you start

• The employee must have access to the workspace.
• The organization must allow employee clock-in and clock-out.
• If geofencing is enabled, the employee should allow location access.

Steps

1. Open Timesheets or the employee timesheet area.
2. Select the scheduled shift when BetterDesks can identify it.
3. If prompted, choose the client and site for unscheduled work.
4. Clock in at the start of the shift.
5. Clock out when work ends.
6. Review the submitted timesheet if corrections are needed before approval.

What good looks like

The timesheet should move from active work to a submitted record that managers can approve, reject, or reopen when needed.

Common mistakes

• Clocking in for the wrong site.
• Denying location access when geofencing is required.
• Forgetting to clock out and creating a missed clock-out exception.
