The account admin must create breaks in the Settings module of the BackOffice to utilize the break feature.

Start a Break

You must be clocked in to take a break. See the Clocking In/Out article for more information. To start a break in the Register:

  1. Enter the employee PIN and tap the Time Clock button.

  2. Tap the Take Break button.

  3. Select the applicable break and tap Start Break.

Note that the employee will be clocked out for unpaid breaks and must clock back in when returning from their break.

End a Paid Break

For paid breaks (e.g., a 15-minute break), no action is required by the employee since the system does not clock them out.

End an Unpaid Break

For unpaid breaks (e.g., 60-minute lunch), the employee must clock back in when returning to work.

To end an unpaid break:

  1. From the login screen, enter the employee PIN and tap the Time Clock button.

  2. From the popup window, tap the Clock In button.

Time Card Management

Administrators can view a summary of the daily Time Clock punches via the Manager Activities module on the login screen. The Time Card feature includes a list of all employees' time clock punches, the time they clocked in, the number of breaks taken, and the total hours worked for each shift. Please refer to the Timecard Settings article for more information on the Time Cards feature.

To access this report, from the login screen, enter the manager PIN and tap Manager Activities, and then tap Time Cards.
