Timecards

This is a Pro Feature

The Timecards page is where you can view, create, adjust, and approve driver timecards.


Timecards are created automatically for each driver, each day based on their time entries in the Driver App. The entries are then converted into worked shifts and available on this page the following day for adjustments and approval. Approved timecards are used when generating Payroll Reports.

Timecards are listed by:
Date - The date the timecard was recorded.
Driver - Name of the driver to which the timecard is associated.
Status - Approval status of the timecard.
            - Pending - The timecard is yet to be approved.
            - Approved - The timecard has been approved.
Shift Time - The start and stop time of the shift.
Shift Hours - Duration of the shift.
Break Hours - Duration of breaks taken during the shift.

Timecards can be filtered by date and approval status.
Use the date range field to view timecards on a certain day or from a period of time.


By default all timecards will be shown. Select Approved to return a list of only timecards that have been approved.
