You can generate reports using either the "Employee Details" report or the "Employee Daily Summary" report, and select the start and end dates of your pay period.

Employee Details:

This report provides detailed information about every shift worked during the pay period, with the option to display a sub-total for each employee.

Employee Daily Summary:

This report can be run for either a one-week or two-week pay period, showing the total hours worked by each employee on a daily basis. Both reports allow for easy tracking and analysis of employee work hours within your selected pay period.

Employees can view their activity through the employee self-service portal. To enable access for your employees, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your account at http://www.OpalTimeCard.com
  2. Navigate to the "Employees" section.
  3. Select the employee for whom you wish to create a login.
  4. Click on "Edit Employee."
  5. Under "TimeCard Access," enter the employee's email address.
  6. In the "Permissions" section, select "Login to the TimeCard Site."
  7. Click "Save."
  8. The employee will receive an email to set up their password.

Once the password is set, the employee will be able to access the self-service portal.

To print individual timesheets for each employee, use the "Employee Details" report and enable the "Sub-totals" option. When this option is selected, the printed report will be organized by employee, with each employee's data appearing on separate pages.

TimeCard doesn't currently calculate overtime pay, but this is something we hope to add in the future.

Time rounding allows you to round clock-in and clock-out times to the nearest specified interval, such as half hour, quarter hour, or 5 minutes. For instance, if you set rounding to 15 minutes and an employee clocks in at 7:50 AM, their time will be rounded down to 7:45 AM. Similarly, if they clock out at 5:54 PM, their time will be rounded up to 6:00 PM.

Please note that rounding rules do not alter the actual recorded times; they are only applied when generating reports. This allows you to experiment with different rounding options without affecting the original time entries.

You can enable time rounding from the settings page.

The "Employee Details" report includes a notes column; however, due to space limitations, the notes are not displayed on the screen or in the printout. To view the notes, you will need to export the report to Excel.

TimeCard does not currently track vacation or sick days. However, you can manually add a time entry for the employee and include a description such as "Vacation" or "Holiday" in the notes field.

Alternatively, you can create a dedicated department called "Vacation" and use this department when entering manual time entries for vacation days.

Yes, TimeCard provides a developer API that enables access to your TimeCard data from other applications.
The TimeCard API is built around REST and currently supports the management of employees, departments, and shifts, as well as access to all TimeCard reports.
