How Clockspot works

Clockspot is a time clock for hourly employees. Employees clock in and out, those punches become timesheets, managers approve them, and the approved hours feed reports you use for payroll. This page is the map; each piece links to its own page.

Clocking in and out

Employees record time three ways — on the web Clock page, at a shared kiosk, or by phone. Each clock-in becomes a time entry with the in/out times and, if your workspace uses them, a job and notes.

Timesheets and approval

Time entries roll up into a timesheet for each pay period, which the employee submits and a manager reviews and approves. If an employee spots a mistake, they request an edit and the manager decides — the record stays accurate either way.

Time off

Employees request time off; managers approve it. Balances grow on their own from the time off types you define — see how accruals work.

Reports and payroll

Reports is the directory for hours, payroll, job, and clock-location reports. Start with Payroll Summary when a period is approved and you need numbers to export — see Running payroll.

Who does what

Everyone is an employee, an admin, or the owner. Roles & access covers the difference.
