Employees arriving early to the job site is the desired outcome, allowing your employees and company to start work as soon as possible. This can be a concern when employees clock in before their expected start time and wait until their workday begins, earning work time when no work is done. To help address this situation, you can enable and configure the "Earliest clock in limit", to set a company-wide earliest clock in.
Consider any federal, state, or local labor laws or regulations before enabling this function.
Navigating to Settings in Arcoro Time
- Go to and click on .
Navigating to Settings from Arcoro Dashboard
- Expand Time and click Manage.
- Click Mobile Settings.
Please Note
- This feature is only available in the latest version of the Arcoro app and is not available in ExakTime Mobile.
- This feature will be applied company wide. If there is a situation where employees could clock in before the earliest clock in limit setting, you should consider alternative options, such as time range rounding, which rounds any time punches in a given time range to a specific time.
- This does not affect any time entered manually, time edits, or clock ins via JobClocks.
- This will apply to when employees are clocking in for themselves or when they are clocked in with "Clock For".
Enabling Earliest Clock In Limit
- Enable "Mobile Settings" so it will be applied to all copies of the Arcoro app connected to your Arcoro Time system.
- Enable "Earliest clock in limit" in the "Clock in and out" section. Enter the earliest time that your employees can clock in.
- Save your changes. Your employees must sync their copies of the app to receive these new changes.
What Your Employees See
