When setting up workforce visibility for the first time, you'll complete these three steps in order to create a fully functional work site:

Step 1: Create a work site

1. Navigate to Settings from your dashboard.
2. Under General Settings, click Workforce Visibility.
3. Click Add Work Site.
4. Enter the work site details:
   • Work site name (e.g., "London Office", "Manchester Office")
   • Address (optional but recommended)
5. Click Save.
   

Step 2: Create departments within the work site

1. Within your newly created work site, click Add Department.
2. Enter the department details:
   • Department name (e.g., "Sales", "Manufacturing", "Company")
   • Check-in time (when employees typically start. Note: They will receive a notification at this time.)
   • Check-out time (when employees typically finish. Note: They will receive a notification at this time.)
   • Working days
3. Click Save.
   

Step 3: Assign employees to the department

1. Click the settings icon next to the department you just created.
2. In the Assign Employees section, click the dropdown menu to select employees.
3. Select the employees you want to assign to this department and work site. 
   Note: Only employees with timesheet type set to "Do not use timesheets" will appear in this list.
   
4. Click Save to confirm the employee assignments.
5. The assigned employees will now receive notifications at the department's designated check-in and check-out times and can select this work site when updating their location.

Important: Employees must have their timesheet type set to "Do not use timesheets" in their employee profile under Pay Details to be eligible for workforce visibility.

1. On your main dashboard, locate the Workforce Visibility widget.
2. The widget displays a quick snapshot showing:
   • Who is in the office
   • Who is working from home
   • Who is on leave
   • Who is unaccounted for
3. You can move this widget to prioritise its position on your dashboard.
   
4. If there are more than 10 people in any category, hover over the section to see up to 10 names, then click View more details to see the complete list.

1. From the workforce visibility widget, click View more details.
2. This opens the live workforce visibility report showing everyone's location for today.
3. Use the filters to sort by:
   • Location (office, work from home)
   • Department
   • Time
   • Employee
4. View historical data by selecting different dates to see where employees were working on specific days.

1. Employees will receive push notifications at their designated check-in and check-out times.
2. Tapping the notification opens the app to the location selection screen.
3. Employees can also manually access this by opening the app and looking for "Where are you working today?" at the top of the screen.
4. They can select from their assigned work sites (office locations or work from home).
5. Employees can change their status throughout the day as needed.
6. At the end of the day, they can tap the X button to clear their status or it will automatically clear after 24 hours.

Employees must have their timesheet type set to "Do not use timesheets" in their employee profile under Pay Details to be eligible for workforce visibility. This is because employees who use timesheets are typically rostered to specific locations, so their location is already tracked through the rostering system.

If an employee forgets to clear their status at the end of the day, the system will automatically clear their status after 24 hours. This prevents employees from appearing as "still in the office" the next day when they've actually left.

Yes! If you're a smaller business where all employees start and finish at the same time, you can create a single department called "Company" (or any name you prefer) and assign all employees to it. You don't need to create separate departments for different teams if they all have the same schedule.
