Requiring Task Selection When Clocking In

This guide explains how to require employees to select a task when they clock in, both on the smartphone app and on the web portal.

Go to Settings, then Project & Tasks work agreements, and select the work agreement assigned to the employees you want to configure. Scroll down and open the relevant tab.

Smartphone app setting

Selecting a task becomes mandatory, and the clock only starts running once a task is selected.

  1. Open the "Conditions for clocking in on smartphone" tab.
  2. Check "It is mandatory to start a task immediately after punch in".
  3. Click Save.

You can also set a default task to appear on the app's main screen; see the related guide for that.

Web portal setting

Selecting a task becomes mandatory here too, and the clock only starts running once a task is selected.

  1. Open the "Conditions for clocking in on the web" tab.
  2. Check "Mandatory to report task start immediately after clock in".
  3. Click Save.

Note: this option is relevant only for Professional and Premium plans.
