Clocking in
Locations & geofences
Add a site, drop a map pin, set the geofence radius staff must be inside to clock in, and set per-site coverage targets and labour budgets.
A location is one of your sites — a café, a venue, a let. Each one carries the map pin and geofence radius that the geofenced clock-in checks against, and optionally a coverage target and labour budget that feed the rota and cost views.
Adding a site
- 1
Search the address
Type the site address; the map jumps to it.
- 2
Fine-tune the pin
Drag the pin to the exact door — clock-in is measured from here.
- 3
Set the radius
Widen or tighten the circle. 75–150m suits most venues; wider for big or weak-signal sites.
Coverage & budget
A site can also hold a coverage target (how many people you want on at given times) and a labour budget. The rota builder uses coverage to show under- and over-staffing, and the budget to show projected cost against the line — see Rota builder and Today & cost.
