Clocking In and Out
Your clocked time feeds payroll — every shift matters.
📍 Top bar → clock icon (Clock in/out)
Book4Time tracks working time for payroll and the timesheet reports. Managers reconcile hours with the Employee Time Sheet reports, so clocking in and out every shift matters.
⏰  How to do it
1
Click the stopwatch/clock icon in the top-right of any Book4Time screen.
2
Choose Clock in at the start of your shift.
3
At the end of your shift, click the same icon and choose Clock out.
4
Forgot to clock in or out? Tell your manager — timesheets can be corrected via Staff Management → Time & Attendance Management.
🔍  Worth knowing
  • Clocked time feeds the Employee Time Sheet, Employee Time Sheet Summary and Time Sheet Audit Log reports (Reports → Sales audit & finance).
  • Scheduled shifts (what you were supposed to work) live on the Scheduler; clocked time is what you actually worked.
  • Managers: the Time Sheet Audit Log shows manual corrections, so edits are always traceable.
