Access from your: Computer

The Humanity Time clock module gives managers the ability to see exactly, from where staff members are clocking into and out of shifts by measuring and reporting GPS distances to their assigned locations.
Things to know before you begin:
You must have a manager/admin, supervisor, or scheduler access privileges in Humanity to view the GPS distances.
Time clock module must be enabled to utilize the Geo-fencing feature.
GPS settings must be enabled from account settings under Time Clock module
The location must be added correctly under the additional location or the remote sites.
Primary locations are not supported by this feature but if you want it to work, add your primary location into additional location.

Note: The location icon can appear in three different colors (green, red, and grey) with different descriptions.
Red: It means the recorded location is outside the maximum radius of the desired location.
Green: It means the recorded location is within a maximum radius of the desired location.
Note: Managers will see the distance when hovering over the GPS icon and can click on it to head over to a new screen where the distance is shown with a pin in Google Maps.
Grey: It means that the location's address has not been entered correctly.
