How Buddy Punch’s time tracking software works
1. Clocking in and out
Employees can clock in and out on their computers or phones, or you can set up Buddy Punch on a central computer or tablet to create a shared time clock kiosk.
2. Viewing timesheets
Buddy Punch compiles all clock-in and out data into timesheets that you can view anytime on the admin dashboard. Hours and overtime are automatically calculated.
3. Time card approvals
Get employees’ supervisors to validate their hours and approve their timesheets before you run payroll to ensure payroll is always 100% accurate.
4. Running payroll
Use Buddy Punch as your payroll provider, or integrate our data with payroll providers like QuickBooks and ADP. Running payroll will be faster and more accurate than ever.
Features to keep employees accountable
GPS tracking
GPS trackingMake sure employees are where they’re supposed to be. Log their GPS locations on their timecards when they clock in and out, or track all of their movements across the day with real-time GPS.
Geofencing and IP address locks
Geofencing and IP address locksPrevent employees from clocking in/out when they’re not on site. Geofencing works great for field employees, while IP address locks are perfect for computer-based employees working in an office.
Photo capture and facial recognition
Put a stop to buddy punching. Have employees take a selfie when punching — you can review photos on their timesheets — or use facial recognition to ensure employees can only punch themselves in/out.
All the features you need to manage your workforce
Manual time entries
Manual time entriesInstead of clocking in and out, your salaried employees can simply enter their hours into Buddy Punch so you can keep track of time and attendance even when it doesn’t impact payroll.
Locations
LocationsCreate locations for your different offices, stores, job sites, etc. Employees select a location when clocking in, then you can filter your reports to see the total hours worked at each of your locations.
Easy editing
If an employee forgets to clock in or out, they can easily edit their own timecards to make sure they’re accurate. Admins or managers can then review and approve those edits if needed.
Job and project tracking
Create job codes for different clients, jobs, tasks, or projects. Employees select a job code when clocking in, then you can see exactly how many hours were spent working on specific tasks.
