FAQ
Questions from the back room
Short answers about installs, lunch breaks, overtime and payroll.
- Do people need to install an app?
- No. ClockInSheet runs in the phone’s browser. You add each person and give them a starting password. They sign in once and can add ClockInSheet to their home screen so the clock is one tap away.
- What about lunch breaks?
- Tap Start unpaid break on the clock and End break when you’re back. The break minutes come off the shift automatically. Time typed in by hand can carry an unpaid break too. The time card calculator works the same way.
- How is overtime counted?
- Hours over 40 in your payroll week by default, which is the federal rule. If your state counts daily overtime, switch the rule in Settings to over 8 hours a day, with double time over 12 for California. Add each person’s hourly rate and the timesheet shows estimated gross pay with overtime at 1.5x.
- Someone forgot to clock in. Now what?
- They add the missed time from their phone, with a note. It’s marked “typed in” so you see it before you approve the week.
- Does it run payroll?
- No. It gives you a CSV with regular and overtime hours per person per week, ready to type or upload into your payroll service.
Not on this clock: GPS tracking, projects and billable hours, scheduling and payroll. ClockInSheet hands your payroll clean hours.
