What is Microsoft Teams time tracking?
Microsoft Teams time tracking means employees record their work hours from inside Teams instead of opening a separate system. With TimeClock 365, the Teams app is another way into the same cloud attendance system your web portal, mobile app and time clocks use.
Punches from Teams follow the same contract rules for breaks and overtime, go through the same manager approvals and end up in the same payroll export. Nothing to reconcile.

Teams for the office, other ways for everyone else
Not everyone sits in Teams. Mix methods per employee - all punches go into the same report.
| Clock-in method | Best for | How they punch |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft Teams | Office and hybrid staff who work in Teams | Punch in and start tasks in the Teams app |
| Chrome extension | Desk workers who switch tasks often | One click in the browser toolbar |
| Mobile app | Field and remote teams | iOS or Android, with GPS location |
| Time clock | Sites with a shared entrance | Fingerprint, face, card or PIN |
| Door access | Offices that control who gets in | The first door entry starts the day |
Attendance from the door
Already badging in? That can be the punch.
With TimeClock 365 door access control, attendance and access share one account. The first card, phone or fingerprint at the door can start the workday and the last exit can end it - no separate clock-in needed for on-site days. Hybrid staff punch in from Teams on home days.
