How do I generate a report of fieldworker's Checkin/Checkout?
Fieldworker Check In/Check Out Report, in the fieldworker section of the catalogue, is attendance over a range: when people started their days and when they finished them.
Open it from Add Report — see generating a report for the sequence.
What it asks for
Section titled “What it asks for”- Fieldworker — required.
- Date Range — required.
Both carry a red asterisk, and nothing generates until both are answered.
What comes back
Section titled “What comes back”The same shift record that sits on a person’s own Attendance tab: the days in the range, the times the app captured, the times those became after the attendance policies were applied, how long the person was checked in, and the overtime beyond their shift. Those columns are explained a column at a time in attendance and check in.
What the Reports section adds is the range. A person’s record answers how was this month for this person; run from here, the same figures answer how was this month, over whatever period you set and without opening anyone’s record.
Which one to use
Section titled “Which one to use”Use the person’s own Attendance tab when you are about to pay them: the salary calculation is on that screen, beside the hours it reads, and the two want to be looked at together — see attendance and check in.
Use this report when the question is not about pay. Who was late this fortnight, whether the new starter is checking in at all, which days the team was short — those are questions about a period rather than a person, and they are quicker to answer in one sheet than by opening records one by one.
A caution on absent days
Section titled “A caution on absent days”A day with no check-in is a day the app was never told about. It might be leave, it might be a day someone worked and forgot to check in, and the report cannot tell the difference.
Where auto check-out is on, a day somebody forgot to close is closed for them at their shift end time rather than left running — see auto check-out. That keeps the figure sane, but the time it writes is the policy’s, not the person’s, which is worth knowing before an unusual day becomes an argument.
