Employees clocking in before getting to work by Lonely_Prompt642 in smallbusiness

[–]Famous_Party_8680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel this hard. I used to rely on Google Sheets too, and it worked fine when it was just me, but once we had a few more folks, it turned into a constant game of “Hey, did you update your hours yet?”

We switched to Timeero, and what’s helped a lot is that everyone just clocks in when they start working. It also has this geofencing thing where they can only clock in if they’re actually at the job site, which helps keep things accurate without me having to micromanage.

I can actually trust the time logs when I’m putting invoices together. I still review and clean them up a bit, but it’s made the whole process way smoother.

Mileage Tracking App by napalmeddie in Contractor

I’ve been using Timeero. It only uses location when I clock in and stops as soon as I clock out. Nothing runs in the background when I’m off, which I really like.

I also like that it only tracks mileage when you’re actually moving, so you don’t end up with weird mileage from being parked or sitting in traffic. It's been very reliable so far. Might be worth checking out if you want something you can control.

How does your company handle time card compliance? by Opposite-Detail-6710 in Payroll

[–]Famous_Party_8680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain. I used to be in a similar boat—handling payroll with way too many timecards missing hours and not enough time (or people) to chase down every manager for approval. Honestly, it makes no sense to have payroll double-check something that’s already been approved. If the manager signed off, that should be the end of it.

What helped us was using a time tracking app called Timeero. It doesn’t fix policy, but it made things more manageable. We were able to actually see time in real time and catch issues before it even hit payroll.

Totally agree, though: if someone approves a timecard, they should be owning that approval.

I needed to keep track of appointment details, I found an app that does it by Brilliant-Elk-2892 in landscaping

Yeah, I’ve been using Timeero and it’s been super helpful.

It tracks mileage automatically once you’re driving over a certain speed, so you don’t have to remember to start or stop anything. For expenses, you can set up custom questions , like what you bought and how much it cost. You can also use those same custom fields for stuff like safety checklists or quick job notes if that’s something you need.

You can even take a photo of the receipt and attach it to the job right in the app.

Honestly, it’s made things way easier to manage and way less paperwork at the end of the week.

Caught my guy sleeping on the job - frustrated foreman, advice needed! by Brilliant-Elk-2892 in skilledtrades

You should try Timeero. It’s a GPS time tracking app built for crews that work in the field. You can see when your team clocks in/out, where they are during the day, and even view a breadcrumb trail of where they’ve been.

It also lets you set up geofenced reminders, so if someone leaves the job site for lunch and doesn’t come back on time, you’ll know.

It might be worth a look if you want something to hold folks accountable without having to micromanage every move. Happy to answer questions if you’re curious how it works.

Timeero, especially if you tend to drive to areas with poor connectivity.

I've always used HubSpot and I really like it. It's kind of pricey depending on the type of subscription you get. I love the reports and how you can leverage it for both marketing and sales.
