Time Clock
The time clock enables real-time tracking of time and attendance. Many organizational rules and configuration settings impact the time clock. Depending on these settings employees may need to be scheduled, at a particular location, or in certain groups to be able to clock.
To Clock On an employee selects a location, project/task, and optionally an activity or client. This creates an "open" time entry with the start time captured when submitted. From that point, an employee can Transfer or Clock Off. It it not necessary to remain signed in to TeamWork once clocked on. In some configurations, an auto-clock off job may end the time entry after a certain number of hours. In this case the entry is also marked as an *Error.
The time clock will ask for your geo-location, so that it can be logged. In some cases, the system may prevent clocking on or off if not within a pre-defined region for the location (or client).
