Conducting payroll is a meticulous process, whether it's the need to chat with a user who did or did not clock in today, double-checking a user's hours, or resolving additional questions that may arise regarding employees working hours.

Looking to set this process with more ease? Having questions to resolve? This is why we inserted the chat into the Time Clock! Now you can chat directly from the Time Clock with a single user or a group of users regarding any Time Clock matter!

In this article, we will cover:

How to Chat with a Single User

In order to chat with a single user, click on the Time Clock Feature on your sidebar, hover the mouse on the right side of the relevant user, and a chat icon will appear, click on that icon and start chatting with your users.
