Guide to the Time Clock of ExakTime Mobile

The Time Clock section of ExakTime Mobile is the initial screen seen after setting up and logging in to ExakTime Mobile for the first time. From the time clock screen, you and your employees can clock in/out, review their hours, allow them to clock in/out for others, and more depending on the logged in user's permission.

What an employee can see and access will depend on their ExakTime Mobile security role and permission(s).
