Time clock configurations define how employees clock in and out. Administrators can set a name, location, and display options, including job selection, schedule enforcement (with R365 Scheduler), break controls, and shift activity. When a location is assigned to a time clock configuration, it will adhere to the time clock rules set in the configuration.
