Set up a site

Who: Admins and Super Admins. Go to: Settings → Sites → Workplaces → Add site.

  1. Give it a name and search for its address, or tap Use my location while you're there.
  2. Drag the pin onto the building and set the boundary with the slider (30–300 m). Keep it just big enough; 80–120 m is safer for large sites, since indoor GPS drifts.
  3. Choose what happens outside the boundary: Flag it (recommended) or Refuse it.
  4. Optionally add an office network, so computers there count as on-site even when they can't pinpoint their location. Only use Add this network while you're at the site.
  5. Choose the ways to clock in here. Only the ways switched on for the workspace can be picked.
  6. Optionally pick a default project: clock-ins here go to it when nobody picks one.
  7. Optionally limit who can clock in here, and check the time zone.
  8. Tap Save.

Printed site code: when a site uses Printed site code, open it again and tap Print site code for an A4 page to put up. Replace code makes a new one and stops every old printout working (useful if a copy has gone missing).

On the macOS and Windows apps the map is a picture; search the address to place the pin. If an Admin loosens a site's rules (a wider boundary, a moved pin, a new network, strict switched to flag), the Super Admin is told.

Example: Priya adds Harbour Café, searches 12 Beach Rd, drags the pin onto the building, sets 80 m and Flag it, and ticks Phone and Kiosk: name + PIN. The café's Wi-Fi is added with Add this network so the office laptop counts as on-site.
