allow user to access running budget on the clockshark app
Right now only admins have access to running budget. If app user has access to running budget he can manage time more efficiently. Right now we have to keep a spreadsheet to track and notify user of running budget. Please add a feature so app user can have access in real time.

With our recent release, we have a new “edit jobs” manager permission that allow employees to manage and edit jobs they have access to on the website as well as create new jobs as needed.
With this, they will be able to set, view, and edit the labor budgets for the jobs they have access to also! This is only available on the website at the moment, however, they can open up the website on their mobile device.

Auto Clock In & Auto Clock Out, Based on GPS Location & Geo Fences
I would LOVE to see the option on Clock Shark !!
There are already other products that offer the same functionality of Auto Clock In & Auto Clock Out, Based on GPS Location & Geo-Fences.
Its offered by a company called (My geo-tracking) they call it a touchless time card & it doesn't even require an app to be installed on the phone.The only issue that the online dashboard and setup process for us managers is complicated and confusing.
clock shark is much more user-friendly.80 votesThank you for sharing your idea, and allowing folks to have a forum to support and vote for it. We prioritize all suggestions with the most traction and support.

Make the PTO function available while using the Kiosk
It would be great to have the PTO function available on the Kiosk!

Hey Matt, thank you so much for providing this idea and letting others have an area to comment and vote!
I can definitely see how this would be useful for some companies. Just to gather some more information, how are your employees using PTO at the moment? Are they using the mobile app or website and what are the issues you are running into with these versions? Thanks for any feedback!

Optimize routes for schedules with multiple jobs on a single day
Automatically schedule jobs in the best order based on address for a route to be completed most efficiently so that driving time is minimized.
1 voteAdminJT Abbott (Admin, ClockShark) responded
This is something that would be very cool and provide a ton of value as well.
Currently, you can use other software like route4me.com in order to accomplish this. But it could be very valuable to integrate this kind of technology into ClockShark itself.

Create a way to add a tempory day labor employee from Crew Clock or Kiosk
We use a lot of temporary day labor employees. Sometimes they may only work 1 or 2 days.It would be great for us to have the ability to add an employee on the fly. We use the quickbooks integration and I understand that the employee wouldn't map to a QB employee. But neither does a job when created on the fly. A notice is created when exporting and it requires to be fixed,
Couldn't there be a way to create hours worked for a temporary employee using maybe the Kiosk feature. Just add a first and last name log-in and…

Using the workaround provided below is going to be the best solution for the time being.
It would be quicker than adding employees all the time not to mention being cleaner without have multiple temp employees on the timesheets, schedules and reports.

facial recognition on each individual clock.
I would like there to be clocking in with facial recognition on each individual clock not only on the kiosk clock

Make GPS ping time adjustable
Make GPS ping time adjustable between 5 minutes and 30 minutes in 5 minute increments per employee. That would allow for tighter control on troublesome employees and looser control on good employees.
46 votesHi Glen,
This is a really great suggestion! Currently, ClockShark updates an employee’s location at 15 minute intervals. This is a conservative interval that ensures that employee cell batteries aren’t taxed by using their GPS.
Thanks for explaining why a different interval would be so helpful to your company. As your idea catches steam here on our voting page, we’ll look into adding that to ClockShark. :)

GPS Tracking - Job Specific
I would like to have the option on each JOB to require/not require gps/location tracking (versus tracking ALL the jobs or NONE of the jobs)
Our contractors get paid for "drive time" (example: picking equipment up from one location - taking to job site). We have jobs "drive time - pick up equipment" so the contractor knows where to go, etc. However, in order for them to clock in for that "job" gps/tracking has to be disabled in the company settings. So, since gps/location isn't required for clocking in - contractors can clock in and out wherever they want to. …1 voteAdminJT Abbott (Admin, ClockShark) responded
Hey Kimberly, thanks for sharing your feedback with us!
Just wanted to grab a little more information of your specific workflow. Why does the GPS have to be disabled for them in order to clock in? Our GPS settings are per employee because most employees want to track the status of the work being done for everything the employee does throughout the day.
If you are worried about getting out of bounds emails and reports if they are going to be away from the jobsite, you can make a task “out of bounds exempt.” That way you won’t get bothered with all that, but still get the tracking.
Thanks for anymore information you can provide!

Schedule on App should start with current day.
App currently starts with first work day scheduled. So if it's a Friday and you started working on Monday it will always show Monday first and you have to scroll through the week to get to where you want to be. Defaulting the current day to the top of the list would save time.

Hey There, Kevin! Thanks for the suggestion! The schedule format is based on the Company Week too, so that display will change based on the company work week settings. Let’s let folks vote with you on this idea and we’ll explore changing that display in a future app update. If you have any other suggestion, please let use know!

improve GEO-TAGGING = 2 critical ideas
improve the GEO-TAGGING!! this is a critical function to our operations and at this moment there is critical deficiencies.
1) clocking out/in for lunch breaks - at these moments it should be geo-tagged. without geo-tagging it leaves the door open to abuse. we do not pay for lunch breaks. a staff member can leave the site and go to a restaurant and sit there for 30 mins before clocking out for their break - and none of these movements are tagged - so we have no way to prove otherwise.
3) database of geo-tags for each employee. you guys have…1 voteAdminJT Abbott (Admin, ClockShark) responded
Hey Darby, thanks for the feedback and sharing your idea here!
To your first point, they get a GPSTrak ping every 15-20 minutes, so if they left the site and sat at a restaurant for 30 minutes you should have one or two pings of them before they clock out for break.
Your second point is an interesting idea, and something we could explore in the future. In your ideal scenario, would you be able to click on this list and a map would pop up from there? Or do you just want to see all the pings for the day on one map?

Allow a forced ping to be performed for GPStrak
With GPStrak sending a gps ping on occassion is great, but if you were able to press a button or something to make an employee's ping. That way you can see where they are on request rather than waiting.
87 votesThanks for sharing this idea. Making a GPS “Blast” feature that could conservatively refresh all the locations of employees is something that our customers have begun asking for. Keep sending in those votes so that we know when exactly to build this for you.

ask if traveling to next job after clock out
My staff do multiple jobs in a day so after clocking out of the current job a prompt asking if they are travelling to the next job that would accumulate towards their total time for the day to make it easier for payroll to see total hours worked.

Signature on Clockout by Client / Staff
Allow for client and staff to sign time at clockout, with prompt to have each sign, and push email/text notifications that this was completed.

Limit employee ability to make changes.
Since I am not out on the jobsite, I don't know what task they are actually doing. Currently, I have given our employees the ability to change their own timecard. However, I would like to limit their ability to make changes to the job specific information (job name, task, description) and not the clock-in and clock-out times. Leaving them the ability to change their hours can create additional problems.
7 votesHey guys, thank you so much for the idea! I definitely see the value of a feature such as this. While we don’t have this exact feature at the moment, there is something that might be useful to you guys. One of our more recent features was the ability for the users to be able to edit their notes without actually editing the time. So in a similar sense the employee could leave you a note that they need the job/task updated for them and still not be able to change the time. That may help for the time being, but we keep this request under review!

Add a time stamp when an employee enters and leaves the GPSFence™ Geofence Area.
A time stamp would show when they arrived and when they left the jobsite in case they forgot to sign in or out from a job site. This would stop alot of guess work for employee and employer.
