Employee Scheduling Software FAQs

What are the disadvantages of using a time clock from an office supply store?

While time clocks are certainly better than handwritten or paper timesheets, they typically only record punches or timestamps. Someone still needs to calculate the hours worked, know how to apply the pay rules and enter the time into payroll. And since this is done manually, information may be overlooked or entered incorrectly. With cloud-based time and attendance systems, a smart time clock records the information, calculates the total hours immediately and sends them to payroll automatically. ADP time clocks also offer biometric identification, prompting employees to punch-in and out using finger scans, facial recognition, voice commands, or PIN codes to automatically upload punches to timecards. These methods prevent “buddy punching”, which happens when an employee may clock-in and out for others.

Can ADP time and attendance software help me manage overtime?

Yes, complying with the Employment Standards for each province and territory and controlling overtime costs are two of the biggest benefits of online time and attendance solutions. Employee time tracking starts with proper classification of workers, followed by automatic and accurate calculation of hours worked during the pay period using time and attendance software. Overtime rules specific to individual businesses and locations are then applied and sent for payroll processing. Managers only need to approve timecards, and not spend hours calculating hours worked or figuring out the correct overtime rules. This helps managers simplify payroll compliance and save time by reducing administrative burden. There is also timely visibility to see who may be approaching overtime so schedules can be adjusted to avoid overtime costs.

To what extent is employee time tracking integrated with payroll and HR?

Time and attendance software features are part of ADP HCM platforms. This means that users only need one username and password, so there is no re-keying or difficulty accessing the system due to forgotten passwords. The experience and design are consistent, and all data is maintained in a centralized location. Employee data flows automatically between HR, payroll, and timekeeping, and there is reliable access from any location, as well as adaptability to support evolving business requirements.

Can employees use their mobile phones for time tracking?

Yes, the ADP Mobile  app allows employees to clock in and out, view schedules, request time off and, more. Geo-fencing helps ensure that staff members are within a specified distance from a work location when they track their time. Our app also has tools for employers, such as payroll and other HR features.

How do employee time tracking apps work?

Employee time tracking apps automate tracking work hours, breaks, and attendance. Instead of manual timesheets, apps can capture clock-ins and clock-outs, often with GPS or mobile capabilities, making it easier for employers to manage schedules, monitor productivity, and run payroll with less administrative effort.

What makes the best time tracker?

The best time tracker is easy to use, accurate, and saves time by automating tasks. It should also offer capabilities such as mobile access, integration with payroll and HR systems, and provide workforce analytics. The best time tracking for your organization may differ based on specific needs. The right tool will streamline time management and boost overall efficiency.

Can I track time and run payroll together?

You can track time and run payroll together with ADP’s time and attendance tracking features that work seamlessly with the payroll processing system. This allows businesses to automatically calculate hours worked, manage overtime, and ensure accurate, on-time payroll.

Can ADP track field employee work hours?

ADP can track field employees work hours through its ADP Mobile app. Field workers can clock in and out using their mobile devices, with features like GPS tracking and geofencing to ensure accurate time and location data.

Does ADP track employees’ locations?

To ensure accurate timekeeping, ADP can track employee locations using GPS tracking through the ADP Mobile App, geofencing, and real-time monitoring. Employers will not receive location data once employees have clocked out.
