Geofencing Clock In/Out on Phorest Go enhances clocking hours on the mobile app, by bringing an invisible geofencing surrounding a branch, helping owners entrust their team is onsite and helping teams by reducing congestion at the front desk to clock hours onsite from their phones.
A quick start checklist to get it started:
- Go to Manager > Rosters > Enable Clock In/Out
- Go to Manager > Settings > Phorest Go
- Enable Geofencing
- Set preferred max distance (default is 50m/yd; minimum is 15m/yd)
- Set preference for offsite clock out. Allows staff to clock their finish time outside the radius and is recorded as offsite
- Go to Manager > Access > Phorest Go > Enable Clock In/Out permission
- Advise the team to check app stores for the latest version of Phorest Go.
- Phorest Go users can clock in in the side menu via Time Management > Clock In
- Phorest Go users will be prompted to allow location permissions on their first attempt. Precise location is preferred for best accuracy
- Teams clock in at start of shift and clock out at the end of shift, each working day. There is no automatics clock when inside the radius
