There are generally two options to add time to SiteMax Mobile these are:

Check In

When you check in, you are starting your time from the present moment. Checking in will also document your location at the time of start.

To Check In navigate from Home > +Add > Time > Check In

Select the Project, Time Type, and any other Check In information. Then click Start to begin recording your time entry.


Multiple Check In

Multiple Check In is useful for creating multiple time entries when working across multiple projects and for Users with manage permissions.

Navigate from Home > Add > Time and then select the Multiple Check In/Out option.

You will be asked to select your Project > User and then fill out the details of your Time Entry. Hit Start to begin recording a User's time.


Manual Time Entry

An employee can enter their time manually instead of the standard Check In method. When entering time manually, time can only be submitted for past or current dates/times and cannot be added for the future. Also, the manual time entry will not include the user's geofence location.

Instead of clicking Multiple Check In/Out, select Multiple Manual Entries, then select the Project, and complete the time entry. After selecting Done, you will see the following screen with the option to add more Time Entries. After adding your entries, click Add to All and then Save to Exit.

Admins can see if a worker manually entered their time with the status icons in the table of time entries.


Checking Out

Standard Check Out is simple, you can either navigate to your time entry with Add > Time or an easier way is to click on the banner displaying your time at the bottom of the page.

This will bring you to the check-out page.

You will see several "Check-out" options when checking out. Using a "Switch" option will stop your current entry and start a new entry with a different Project, Cost Code, or Work.

Splitting your time is allocating your time to the appropriate Project, Cost Code, Work type or Equipment. This is important if you are working in more than one location, or doing multiple activities.
