The everyday attendance flow, and what each resulting status means.

What this does

Records the start and end of your work session for the day.

Who can do this

Every employee, for themselves.

Steps

  1. Go to Attendance (or use the Clock In button in the header).

  2. Click Clock In when you start work.

  3. Click Clock Out when you finish.

What happens next

Your clock-in is immediately evaluated against your workspace's attendance rules and marked Early, Present, or Late (see "How attendance status is determined" for exactly how). If your workspace uses location-based rules and you're outside the expected location, that's reflected too, unless you're marked exempt.

Important notes

  • If your workspace requires strict enforcement, a clock-in outside the allowed window may be rejected outright rather than just flagged โ€” ask your administrator if this happens unexpectedly.

Troubleshooting

  • You can't clock in at all โ€” see "Can't clock in" in Troubleshooting.
