FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

VeriClock Location Management allows employers to control, monitor, and validate where employees are physically located when recording time.

It combines:

  • GPS capture
  • Geofence enforcement
  • Job-based location controls
  • Continuous shift tracking (optional)
  • Telemetry reporting
  • Audit-ready location history

This ensures time entries are aligned with approved worksites before payroll export.

Yes.

GPS tracking can be configured:

  • Globally across the account
  • Individually by employee

This allows you to apply stricter controls for field crews while limiting GPS requirements for office staff.

Yes – when GPS tracking is enabled, GPS location is required at clock-in.

If the employee disables GPS or does not share location:

  • A warning appears
  • Admins can review the status
  • The event is flagged for visibility

This ensures transparency and reduces unverified time entries.

A geofence is a virtual boundary placed around a jobsite.

VeriClock allows you to:

  • Set geofence by exact coordinates
  • Set geofence based on clock-in location
  • Configure radius between 200 meters and 5000 meters
  • Apply geofences per job

This supports both compact jobsites and large-scale projects.

Yes. You can configure enforcement as:

  • Warning only (flag but allow clock-in)
  • Hard block (prevent clock-in/out outside boundary)

You can also warn or block clock-in/out if employees leave the geofence during their shift.

This provides flexible enforcement depending on your operational needs.

Yes.

Geofencing can be tied directly to specific jobs.

This allows:

  • Different boundaries per project
  • More precise location-based tracking
  • Job-level enforcement instead of global rules

Since March 2023, job-based geofencing has been enhanced for more precise location validation at clock-in.

Yes – if continuous GPS tracking is enabled.

Features include:

  • Periodic GPS pings during active shifts
  • Full movement review
  • A point-by-point slider to move from the beginning to the end of a shift
  • Visual mapping of the employee’s route

This allows supervisors to review jobsite presence and route validation.

Tracking automatically stops at clock-out.

The mobile app now provides additional telemetry data, including:

  • Whether GPS was enabled or disabled
  • Whether the device was powered off
  • Status indicators during clock events

This increases accountability and provides additional context during time review.

Yes.

You can download reports that include:

  • Latitude and longitude coordinates
  • All GPS pin stamps for the clock event
  • Activity timestamps
  • Clock-in and clock-out location data

This creates a detailed audit trail for payroll review, compliance, and internal investigation if needed.

Yes. Mileage and/or general movement waypoints can be tracked at specific points within clock events.

This is typically useful for:

  • Field service crews
  • Large, spread-out jobsites
  • Route-based operations

Mileage pings help support reimbursement tracking and route verification.

Depending on your configuration:

  • The system can issue a warning
  • The system can block further time recording
  • The event can be flagged for review

Managers can review these events before approving time for payroll.

Yes. Role-based permissions allow you to:

  • Limit managers to assigned jobs
  • Restrict visibility by location
  • Segment access by crew or branch

This supports multi-branch organizations and separation of duties.

No. GPS tracking only occurs:

  • At clock-in
  • At clock-out
  • During active shifts (if enabled)

Tracking automatically stops at clock-out, maintaining employee privacy outside paid time.

Location enforcement ensures:

  • Employees clock in at authorized worksites
  • Time aligns with assigned jobs
  • Remote or unverified clock-ins are flagged
  • Movement during shift can be reviewed

When combined with approval workflows, this ensures validated jobsite-verified time flows into payroll exports.

Yes. Approved and validated time entries can be exported into supported accounting systems, including:

  • QuickBooks Desktop
  • QuickBooks Online
  • Sage 50 US
  • Sage 50 Canada
  • Sage 100 Contractor
  • Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate

This ensures jobsite-validated labor data flows cleanly into payroll and job costing.
