Introduction

TimeTec offers a geofence feature which limits the GPS clocking within a preset location range. Due to the restriction, some staff might not be able to clock their attendance when they are outside of the permitted area. In TimeTec, the Admin can set a setting which can allow the staff to request for clocking outside of the permitted area, which then will need approval from the superior. Here we will guide you on how to request and approve out of area via TimeTec HR app.

Process

1. Request for Out of Area Clocking

1. When a user wants to clock outside of the allowed Geofence area, a pop up notification will appear on the user phone app after the user clicks on the GPS icon.
