Track Employee Time From Anywhere

Time and attendance software tracks when employees start and end work, manages PTO requests, monitors overtime, and integrates this data into payroll. It can track time by location, department, labor group and more. It automates manual tasks, reduces errors, and ensures employees are paid accurately.

The best method is whichever one produces an accurate, complete record with the least manual entry. For most small businesses that means an online system where employees clock in and out themselves — by phone, browser, or a shared device on site — rather than a paper sheet or a spreadsheet reconstructed at the end of the week. The method matters less than the record: if you can't show when someone worked, you can't defend the hours you paid.

Yes. Our time and attendance software is fully integrated with payroll in the isolved People Cloud platform. That means employee hours, PTO requests, and overtime flow directly into payroll without the need for manual entry. Managers approve time cards once, and the data is automatically ready for payroll processing. This reduces errors, saves hours each pay cycle, and ensures employees are always paid accurately.

Yes. Even if employees work remotely, you are still responsible for accurate time tracking under wage and hour laws. Our software allows remote staff to clock in and out from their devices, with geofencing to ensure location accuracy.

Yes. Employees can punch from a mobile device, a web browser, a shared tablet or kiosk, or a wall-mounted clock — and you can use more than one method across different locations or crews. What matters operationally is deciding which methods you'll allow and writing that into your timekeeping policy, so there's a documented standard rather than a habit.

It calculates overtime according to the rules you configure, based on actual recorded hours. Federal law requires time and a half over 40 hours in a workweek for non-exempt employees, and some states add daily overtime thresholds or seventh-consecutive-day rules. The advantage of automating it isn't just arithmetic — it's that the same rule gets applied to every employee every week, instead of depending on who ran payroll that Friday.

Employees submit requests in the same system where they punch, managers approve or decline, and approved time flows to both the schedule and payroll. Accrual balances update automatically based on the rules you set — hours earned per hours worked, per pay period, or granted annually. Employees can see their own balance, which tends to reduce the number of "how much do I have left?" conversations more than any other single feature.
