Detailed answer
When an employee clocks in, BetterDesks creates an active timesheet. When they clock out, the system updates that active timesheet, records the clock-out time, calculates raw worked minutes, rounded worked minutes, break minutes, payable minutes, and hours worked, then moves the record into submitted status.
If geofencing is enabled, BetterDesks checks the employee's location against the site's configured coordinates and radius for clock-out as well as clock-in.
If an employee forgets to clock out, an admin or scheduler can close the active timesheet with an estimated clock-out time for review.
Example
A guard clocks in at a client site and later clocks out from the same site. BetterDesks calculates payable time from the actual clock-in and clock-out values. If the guard forgets to clock out, the manager closes the missed clock-out and reviews the record before approval.
How BetterDesks helps
BetterDesks captures both sides of the attendance record and keeps missed clock-outs inside the review workflow.
