Punch locations are a way to ensure your employees are onsite. When you enable punch locations, you can create a geofence at your work site. Currently, punch locations can only be enabled by an administrator. Here’s how to set it up.

On a Browser

Step 1: Log in and click “Settings” at the top of the screen.
Step 2: Select “Locations,” then “New Locations.”
Step 3: Name your location (i.e., “Coffee Shop”).
Step 4: Toggle “Create Mobile GPS Punch Location” on.
Step 5: Enter the location’s street address (or its latitude and longitude).
Step 6: Set the proximity to create a geofence around the location.*
Step 7: Click “Save.”

On Mobile

Step 1: After opening the app, tap on your initials and navigate to “Settings.”
Step 2: Tap on “Locations.”
Step 3: Click the + icon to add a new location.
Step 4: Name your location (i.e., “Coffee Shop”).
Step 5: Toggle “Create Mobile GPS Punch Location” on.
Step 6: Enter the location’s street address.
Step 7: Set the proximity to create a geofence around the location.*
Step 8: Click “Save.”

*Note: If employees are having trouble clocking in onsite due to GPS interference, setting a higher proximity may resolve the issue.
