Timeclock Area
Updated At: 2026-07-20
- Set up timeclock areas for your teams and locations.
- You can set up coordinate, WiFi, and QR code as timeclock methods for each timeclock area.
Note
• You can add more than one timeclock area for each team/location.
• Set timeclock areas such as Head office, Branch office and Remote Work(Home) for each team/location to use when clocking in and out.
• When coordinate is used as the timeclock method, employees can clock in/out after verifying that they are within the configured timeclock area radius. (Location data is used solely to verify whether the employee is within the radius. It is not stored in Shiftee or shared with administrators, and is discarded immediately after verification.).

💡 Note
