Complete Guide to Location View for Time Card Details

Location view on Time Card Details allows you to view your employees based on the locations they worked from your Time Card Details.

When viewing an employee's time card, it will show all of their time records from any location. Location view helps you focus on the employees that worked at a given location.

Location View List

The location view can be accessed by clicking the "Location View" tab from the Time Card Details page.

Editing Your Time Cards

The best practice is to make all your edits (adding, editing, and/or deleting time records) in one batch before saving. As the policies will be applied to the time card after saving, saving after every minor edit will result in multiple policies applying and take longer for the fully calculated time card to present.
