About this feature: Enabling volunteers to use the timeclock can help you track when volunteers are on-site, or engaged in specific activities. Volunteers will be able to sign in, select a specific activity and the hours will automatically be calculated once the volunteer has clocked out.
Organizational Default Timeclock Permissions
Go to: Configuration, then click on “Hours and Timeclock Settings” found in the sidebar under Activities
Scroll down to “Timeclock Settings”
Check the box beside “Enable volunteer express timeclock”
If not already done, set the Default Timeclock Permission for the organization: timeclock permission for timeclocks on a computer, or mobile phone, if permitted (cannot log hours, can log hours with approval, can log hours without approval).
Note: This can be different from the setting you apply for volunteers logging hours through their “Hours” tab on their MyImpactPage.com profile.
Click the [Save] button
Note: Restricting the Timeclock to a specific IP address(es) is an option that we highly recommend if the Express Timeclock is enabled. You will see a warning if you have not done this.
Individual Timeclock Permissions
You can have a volunteer follow a rule that is different than the one set in Organizational Default Permissions:
Click the person icon at the top of the screen and type the person’s name into the Quick Search bar.
Click on the volunteer’s name when it appears in the list
In the “Main” tab, click on the “Miscellaneous” section and select “Volunteer”
Set the desired “Log Hours Permission” and/or “Timeclock Permission” for the volunteer
Click the [Save] button
