Use the Timecards report to gather data on individuals in/out records for a desired date range, as well as seeing the associated Rooms the staff was checking in/out of.

💡 We also recommend viewing this same information that is now centralized by navigating to the Staff & Payroll page and then Time tracking. Learn more about the Time tracking page here.


Report Overview ↓

When navigating to the Timecards report under Reporting > Reports, the following columns will be visible:

  • Date - This is the date of the initial check-in

  • Staff Member - Full name of the staff member

  • Daily Total - The total number of hours the staff member was checked in

  • Room - The room the staff member was checked in to

  • Time In & Out - The exact date and time the punch occurred
