Review the shop week

See which employees and jobs make up the week.

Open one workweek and review the employee, job, duration, break, and status behind every time entry.

Review every employee in one workweek

See technicians, service advisors, detail employees, and office staff with their recorded hours.

Keep each entry with its job

The selected Clockspot job remains beside the employee hours it belongs to.

Find hours that still need attention

Open entries, missing jobs, and unapproved time remain visible before payroll.

Before payroll

Fix missed punches before payroll receives the week.

Managers can find incomplete entries, review an employee’s requested change, and approve the corrected hours in Clockspot.

Step 1

Find entries with no clock-out

Open entries remain visible in the same workweek as the rest of the completed shop hours.

Step 2

Compare the recorded time and requested fix

See both values and read the employee’s reason before approving or rejecting the change.

Step 3

Approve the corrected employee hours

Finish the corrections first, then approve completed time for payroll reporting or export.

Before employees leave the shop

Work Checklists keep shop and repair-bay closeout consistent before clock-out.

Clockspot opens the checklist that applies when an employee clocks out from their own account. Employees record what was completed and flag anything the office needs to follow up on.

  • Keep repair-bay closeout consistent across the shop

  • Surface parts or equipment issues while the day is fresh

  • See which checklists were submitted and which are still waiting

Common questions

Will Clockspot fit the way your shop tracks time?

  • Shared shop computer or browser
  • Job and department labels
  • Manager review before payroll
Can employees clock in from a shared shop computer?
Yes. Run a Clockspot kiosk on a shared tablet or computer, or let each employee sign in to their own account from a phone, tablet, or computer browser.
Can we track hours by job or department?
Yes. A Clockspot job can represent Diagnostics, General Repair, Tire & Wheel, Reconditioning, Detail Bay, Service Advisor, training, or another category your managers need to review.
Does Clockspot track flagged or flat-rate hours?
No. Clockspot records employee work time and the selected job. It does not calculate flagged hours, flat-rate pay, labor-guide time, technician efficiency, or repair-order profitability.
Does Clockspot replace shop-management or dealer software?
No. Clockspot tracks employee schedules, time, corrections, approvals, and reports. Repair orders, vehicles, parts, estimates, invoices, customers, DMS workflows, payroll processing, and HR stay in their own systems.
