 Alerts and approvals configured to meet your business needs

Buddy Punch offers several different alerts and approvals which can be configured to meet your business needs. Setup notifications on a per employee basis and as per your business rules, so you can have an effective time tracking solution your employees can easily integrate into their existing workflow.

Overtime tracking

Track overtime for each employee by setting them up with a global or per user overtime type. Get alerted when an employee is approaching daily or weekly overtime. 

Custom alerts & notifications

Easily notify users if they need to submit their time card, if they forgot to punch out or if a punch requires approval. Customize alerts to meet your business needs.

Time card approvals

With time card approvals, employees must submit their time at the end of each pay period. Get notified when an employee submits their time card for approval so you can take action. 

POWERFUL TIME CLOCK ALERTS AND APPROVALS

Buddy Punch’s alerts and approvals are designed to inform employees, managers and administrators when action needs to be taken or if an issue needs to be addressed. With more than a dozen alerts and approvals, you can be informed about time tracking events that occur at any time.

Alerts and approvals include:

  • Time Card Approvals
  • Absence Alerts
  • Reminders to Punch
  • Early and Late Notifications
  • Shift Reminders
  • And more!

DIFFERENT NOTIFICATION CHANNELS 

Notifications can be configured to be delivered via specific channels. Buddy Punch support two unique channels that you can choose from. These include:

  • Email: Have notifications delivered directly to your email. This option is ideal for notifications that aren’t quite critical, but need to be reviewed in the future.
  • SMS: Have notifications delivered directly to your Buddy Punch mobile app. This option is ideal for punch in/out reminders or late notifications. 

PUNCH, TIME OFF AND TIME CARD APPROVALS

Don’t want your employees making changes to their time card or requesting time off without your consent? Approvals can be enabled, so that any time an employee makes a change to their time or requests time off it will go to their manager or an administrator first. 

Managers and administrators will see these approvals directly on their dashboard so they can take immediate action.
