The staff time clock: clock in, clock out, timesheets

Staff attendance should not need paper or a wall device. With the Staff module unlocked, iEasySR turns any phone into a time clock.

One tap from any screen

Staff at a Staff-module school get a clock in/out button in the top bar and a clock card at the top of the Dashboard, so nobody has to hunt for a page. A green dot means you are currently clocked in. The full Time Clock page (sidebar, under School) lists your recent events, and owners also see the whole team's live status: who is in and since when.

The time is set by the server, not the device, so nudging a phone or computer clock cannot change it.

Geofencing, without the friction

To clock in, a staff member picks an authorised workplace (chosen automatically when there is only one) and must be within its radius. Owners add one under Time Clock, Workplaces by dropping a location and radius (tap Use my current location while standing on site). The check runs on the server against GPS coordinates, with the distance stored as evidence.

Off site, or with a poor fix? Staff can still clock in by entering a reason, which is flagged for you. Clock-out is location-checked too but never blocked, so nobody is ever trapped clocked in. Location is read only at the moment of clocking, after a one-time consent, never in the background.

Schedules and punctuality

Set a work schedule under Workplaces & policy: expected start and finish, an unpaid break, target hours, a lateness grace period and which days count. From then on, timesheets measure each person against it: on time versus late (with minutes late), left early, worked versus target hours, and absences on working days with no clock-in. Comparisons use your school timezone once you set one.

You can also round sessions, ignore very short ones, mark overtime, and switch on strict geofencing to block off-site clock-ins outright. Every policy save is versioned for audit.

The timesheet

Open Timesheets, pick a date range and, as owner, one person or everyone. It pairs clock-ins and clock-outs into work sessions, totals hours, flags anything to check, and exports to PDF or CSV. Lateness is never blocking: it is there to see and report on.
