Time clock

The clockings view

The Time clock page shows, week by week and employee by employee, all the clocked hours. It's your starting point for tracking and creating clockings.

The Time clock page brings together the hours actually worked by your employees. Where the schedule shows what was planned, the clockings show what happened: arrival time, departure time, breaks. It's the basis for worked time control and payroll preparation.

The screen is found in the Time clock menu.

The page is organized by week, with one column per day. Each row corresponds to an employee, and shows their clockings for the day. You change week with the date selector at the top of the page.

On each clocking box, you can read at a glance the three key pieces of information for the slot: the total time (from arrival to departure), the break (with the distinction between paid and unpaid break) and the total worked (the actual working time, once unpaid breaks are deducted).

If your establishment is split into sections, you can filter the display to a specific section to see only the relevant employees.

Search for an employee

The search field filters the list by name. Handy when the team is large and you want to check a particular person's clocking.

Create a clocking

The Create a clocking button lets you add a clocking manually, for example when an employee forgot to clock in or worked without badging. You then fill in the employee, the date and the relevant times.

Edit a clocking

By clicking a clocking, you open its edit window: you can adjust the hours, the breaks, the section, the skills, attach a shift to it, etc. An important rule applies here: any modification requires a mandatory comment. You cannot save a change without justifying why you're correcting the clocking. This keeps a clear trace of every manual intervention, useful in case of an inspection or a question from the employee about their hours.

Going further

This view is the entry point for clocking tracking. From there, several finer actions are possible, each detailed in its own article: validate clockings before payroll, add, edit or delete a clocking, manage breaks, identify a clocking's origin (mobile, tablet or manual), attach a free clocking to a shift, or view clockings as a schedule to compare them with the planned schedule.

Clockings feed the worked time sheets and the exports to the social secretariat directly. It's therefore better to check and validate them regularly rather than waiting until the end of the payroll period.
