Yes, you can prevent an employee from clocking out from outside a geofence with the Auto-Clock Out capability. Enabling this feature automatically clocks out employees the moment they leave your designated worksites.

How to Activate the Auto Clock-out from a Geo-Fence

  1. Access the Time Clock feature from the left sidebar and select your Time clock

  2. Click on Settings at the top right corner

  3. Scroll down to the Geolocation tab

  4. Please choose one of the following options:

    1. Clock in & out and toggle on 'Users must enable location sharing to clock in & out'

    2. Breadcrumbs (live-tracking)

  5. On the same tab, head to the Geo-Fence section and click on Edit Sites.

  6. A new modal will open; click again on + Add sites and set your Geofence with all its details: Site Name, Site Address, Fence Size, and Available jobs. To read more about how to create a Geo-Fence, click here.

  7. At the bottom of the modal, you'll be asked to select what happens when a clocked-in user leaves the Geofence - you can choose to do nothing or to automatically clock them out. If you select to automatically clock them out, they will be auto-clocked out when they leave the site, provided their location services are enabled.
