Hours by work area

One manufacturing time record

Keep floor clock-ins, work areas, and corrections together before payroll.

Employees record time where they work. Managers review one complete workweek before approval.

Step 1

Let employees clock in from the floor or office

Use a shared kiosk, browser, or phone, with no native app to install.

Step 2

Keep every hour with the right work area

Use Clockspot jobs for Cutting, Welding, Assembly, Inspection, Shipping, Maintenance, or another area.

Step 3

Catch incomplete time before payroll

Review missing punches, overtime, and requested changes, then approve complete employee hours.

Before the next shift arrives

Work Checklists help every shift leave equipment and work areas ready for the next one.

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

  • Keep shift closeout consistent across the floor

  • Bring equipment issues into view before handoff

  • See which checklists were submitted and which are still waiting

Review the workweek

See which employees and work areas make up the week.

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

See which work area each entry belongs to

The selected Clockspot job stays beside the employee hours your manager reviews.

Review regular time and overtime together

Use the same workweek to check total hours and overtime before payroll.

Find hours that still need attention

Open entries, missing work areas, and unapproved time remain visible.

Before payroll

Correct missing punches so employee hours are complete and ready for payroll.

Managers can find incomplete entries, compare each requested change with the original record, and approve complete employee hours for payroll.

Step 1

Find missing clock-outs before payroll

Open entries remain visible with the rest of the workweek, so managers can correct them before payroll.

Step 2

Verify corrections before payroll review

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

Step 3

Approve complete hours for payroll

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

A focused employee time clock

Track employee hours in Clockspot. Keep production work in your manufacturing system.

Each system keeps the record it is built to manage, so payroll hours stay ready for review without changing how your floor manages production.

Common questions

Will Clockspot fit the way your floor tracks employee time?

  • Shared floor kiosk or browser
  • Hours by work area
  • Manager review before payroll
Can employees clock in from one shared floor device?
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 employee hours by department or work area?
Yes. A Clockspot job can represent Cutting, Welding, Assembly, Quality Inspection, Shipping and Receiving, Maintenance, Safety Training, or another area your managers need to review.
Can managers review overtime before payroll?
Yes. Clockspot applies the overtime rules configured for your workspace and keeps regular time, overtime, open entries, corrections, and approvals available for review before reports are exported.
Does Clockspot replace ERP, MES, or production software?
No. Clockspot tracks employee schedules, time, breaks, corrections, approvals, and reports. Production orders, operations, quantities, scrap, machines, materials, inventory, payroll processing, and HR stay in their own systems.
