Employee notification preferences​

Each employee can configure their own notification preferences in Personal Settings > Notifications:

Service Reminders​

  • Send reminder at -- Choose what time to receive the reminder (6 AM - 9 AM)

Timesheet Reminders​

  • Enable timesheet reminders -- Get reminded to log hours
  • Reminder time -- When to send the reminder (9 AM - 7 PM)
  • Reminder days -- Which days of the week to send reminders

Admin Alerts (admins only)​

Admins can enable alerts for employee activity:

  • Employee check-in alerts -- When employees check in at service locations
  • Employee check-out alerts -- When employees check out from service locations
