Device/Shift Restriction


Shift Restriction(s) – Setting an interval of time where the employee’s transactions will not be accepted. Changing this setting will apply to every employee who has this shift. This feature allows companies to prevent employees from getting overtime hours just because they are clocking in too early. 


Upon clock in, the device will then communicate with the account to check whether or not to restrict the employee from clocking in. When a Restriction is taking place the device will show this message.



How to set up:


Dashboard > Settings > Devices > Enable device access restrictions 





Dashboard > Devices > Configure Devices > Edit Device > Advanced > Enable Device access restrictions from shifts 



Dashboard > Company > Shifts > Edit Shift > Access Restrictions (Before/After) Note that this must be a fixed shift for a shift restriciton to be possible


 

This restriction added to the shift configuration can be utilized on the scheduling screen. When editing an employee’s schedule, you can opt to apply the access restriction settings based off shift restrictions created above.

 

Go to the Employee’s Schedule screen, click on “Edit this week” to bring up the schedule of the whole week, or click on a specific day on the calendar > Restrict Device Access from shift
