Employee Clocking Out Questions – Update

Employee Clocking Out Questions – Update

Purpose:
To explain the recent improvements made to the employee clock-out process in Contractor Foreman, making it easier for Time Card admins to manage entries while reducing unnecessary modification requests.

Background:
Previously, employees with modification privileges could unintentionally trigger change request emails when clocking out, creating additional work for Time Card admins. To streamline the workflow, the clock-out process has been updated. Employees now have clearer options and visibility into their recorded time, which helps prevent confusion and unnecessary adjustments.

Key Points to Remember:

• Clock-out questions have been modified to simplify the process.
• Users with modification privileges will no longer send automatic change request emails when clocking out.
• Employees will now be explicitly asked whether they want to modify their time or simply clock out.
• The start and stop times are displayed on the clock-out screen for transparency.

Steps for Employees

1. Access the Time Card Menu
   • Navigate to: Menu → Time Card

2. Creating a New Time Card
   • Select + New Time Card to log time.

3. Viewing History
   • Use the Show History option to review past entries for accuracy.

4. Clocking Out
   • On clocking out, you will now see your start and stop times displayed.
   • You will also be asked if you want to modify your time or simply clock out.

What This Means for Admins:

• Fewer unnecessary change request emails.
• Reduced time spent reviewing or approving unintended modifications.
• Cleaner and more accurate Time Card data from the start.

What This Means for Employees:

• Clearer options at clock-out (Modify vs. Clock Out).
• Greater visibility into their logged hours.
• Less chance of unintentionally triggering a modification request.

Additional Notes:

• These improvements were made specifically to support Time Card admins and improve efficiency.
• Employees should continue to review their clock-in and clock-out times daily for accuracy.
• If further modifications are needed, they can still be handled through the standard approval process.
