How do employees view their cumulative hours?

How do employees view their cumulative hours?

My employees would like to be able to see how many hours they have worked past one shift. Is there a setting somewhere I can change for that?

Re: How do employees view their cumulative hours?

Hi @TrueNature, this is Chris (product manager for Employee Management). Appreciate your earlier post and follow-up here - I hear you! I don't have a timeline I can share yet, but I will say that we are working on this right now. Couple of questions for you below to help us figure out the best approach for this:

 

- How are you working around this missing feature right now?

- Do you only want your employees to be able to view their own timecards, or would you want them to be able to edit them as well?

- If they're edited, would you want to be notified that a change was made? What would be the best way to show/tell you that an update was made?

- Should employees be able to delete timecards?

- Is there any time limit for which timecards an employee should be able to edit? i.e. only allow this for timecards in the last 2 weeks.

- Do you envision employees being able to log in to Dashboard to access this, or are you thinking more of an email or print-out from the POS after a completed shift?

 

Re: your comments about the clock in/out flow, I'd love to set up some time with you to chat about which parts you think are too cumbersome. I'll follow up so we can set up a time for a call.

Re: How do employees view their cumulative hours?

At the moment, the only way for employees to have to ability to view past timecards is to update their team permissions to allow them to be able to log into Square Dashboard and "manage timecards". 

 

While this will allow them to view all of their old time cards, it will also give them access to adjust older time cards along with all other employee timecards. I understand that this can cause some issues as employees having the ability to edit each others, or their own, timecards isn't ideal. Ill share this request with our Product team.

Any update on this setting yet? Most employees prefer to be able to see thier accumulative hours when they clock out.

@DeeLuxeChicken I don't have any updates at this time but as Chris, the Product Manager for Employee Management mentioned in this post we are working on this. If you'd like to reply to his questions too that would be a great! 

Any updates on this?  Timecard is kind of useless for employees if it doesn't show them how much they have worked so far.  Even just a chit print option when they clock out would make this feature at least as functional as an oldschool punchclock

Hello @NewMorningBake! We're still looking into this feature request right now. 

 

@Cosgrove is collecting feedback and use cases from sellers. 

 

Right now we don't have a timeline on when this feature might be available, but we will provide updates on this thread! 🙂

This reply was created from merging an existing thread: Can you print a time slip for employees so they know hours worked?

Can square pos print a time slip for each clock in/out for each employee so they know hours worked?

@bybg It's not possible to print a time slip for employees, but the Payroll team is still actively working on improving how employees can see the hours they have worked! 

 

I've added your post to this thread where you can view Kelly's workaround and I hope this helps in the meantime. 

Any movement on this?  This is a very basic function, and for $5/mo. per employee, should have been a feature from day one.

Hello! I use Square Timecards and Payroll and love it! A few of my employees would like to be able to view their timecards, just for their own reference, and to be able to alert me to any errors I may need to correct. I don't want them to be able to do anything more than see their own timecard. I did read a message posted back in August that this is a feature you are working on, and just wanted to see if anything has changed yet. Thanks!!

Hey @RenegadeStEats - This feature is currently still being built out. We'll make sure to update this thread once it's been released. Thank you for your patience!

This is a key feature for which I am likely to switch from Square Payroll.  Fix it now or lose a customer.  (You have had 2 years.)
