We are already working  on the Emplotime version 3.3 which apparently will include Projects and Exception Reports , however, in the meantime we have released a small version. The version 3.2 recently released is packed with some goodies related to employee working hours reports. This new feature is going to be very handy for those companies having employees working overnight. The filter reports now includes the possibility to check the "Enforce Overnight" checkbox. By selecting this checkbox, the output report will maintain the whole transaction within the same day. (Preventing of getting it separated in two different days). For example, if Tom clocked In on Wednesday at 10:00 PM, and clocked out at 05:00 AM in the following day, the entire transaction will be recorded for Wednesday.

We are providing all our customers the possibility to choose which of the features they will want to see coming out in our next version 3.2 We would like you to be part on the decision of our next features to be implemented on our time clock version 3.2 These are the following features we think you will be interested for our next version: Exception Reports: With this feature you will be able to see and print information about employees arriving late for work or going home early as an example. Projects: This feature will allow to create a bunch of projects. The employee will be able to choose from this list when clocking out, in order to inform on what project he is working. Later on, you as the manager or administrator will be able to run reports based on working projects. Spanish Translation: For our spanish speaker customers we might implement the complete translation of our site to spanish. Other: You may specify a particular feature youare interested for our next ve...

Today, we have released the Emplotime Version 2.9 This version includes an extension to the "notes feature". Until now  the employee was able to provide a short job description (up to 50 char) when clocking Out. In this version, the administrator may also see and update these notes from the administrative portal. In addition, if also the checkbox "Only for Admin" is selected, then, the notes will be for administrative purposes allowing only the managers to provide notes for any given transaction. See screenshot below. In order to add notes from the administrator portal, you first need to select the "Notes" feature and also the checkbox "Only for Admin" in case you want to avoid the popup "note" window from the Clock page.

Emplotime allows setting the time clock page centralized in the reception's PC and also on every employee's PC. If you have a company with several employees where every employee clocks In and Out from his own PC, the best practice will be setting this PC as a "Personal Device". Emplotime version 2.4 allows you to easily set a time clock page for single employee use by clicking on the new "Personal Device" toggle button. After clicking on the "Personal Device" button, the clock page will be adapted for single use by retrieving only the selected employee data transactions. Every given employee is allowed to click the "Personal Device" button and turn his own PC into his personal clocking device, and you, as his manager should encourage the employee to do that. In order to revert this operation, you will need to click on the same "toggle" button, called now, "Public Device" button. As oppossed to the ...
