Shifts - Clocking in/out & schedule
Timesheets are easy. Deputy lets you log your hours in a number of ways. You can use your smartphone, a web browser, or if your manager has set it up, an iPad.
iPad Kiosk
If your manager has set up an iPad Kiosk, you can clock in via the following method:
- Open the Deputy Kiosk app
- Find your name on the list on the left. Select your name and enter your PIN
3. Press ‘Start Shift’ under the area you have been assigned/scheduled to
And you’re done!
Some employers may have it set so that it takes a photo when you clock in via the Kiosk app. This is just to ensure that you’re actually there and working the shift, instead of getting a co-worker to clock in and out for you.
Ending your shift works exactly the same way!
Web Browser
You can also start your shift via a web browser. To do this, log into Deputy at once.deputy.com. Make your way to the ‘Me’ page. On the left side, you will see your scheduled shift details. Click ‘Start Shift’ to begin your shift.
iOS and Android App
Much like the web browser version, the iOS and Android applications are simple to use. All you need to do is head over to the ‘Me’ tab. Your shift details will be displayed, as well as a ‘Start Shift’ button.
Note that your employer may need you to have Location Settings/GPS turned on (you can do this in your phone options). This is to ensure that you are starting your shift at your work location.
Note, we do not continuously track the location of the users. The location is only captured at the start of a shift, start/end of a meal break and at end of a shift.
How to check when you are working
There are many ways to check when you’re working next. You can check the ‘Me’ tab on the web browser and smartphone apps and it will display your shifts. Alternatively, you can request your manager to send an email and SMS when your shifts are published.
Web Browser
There are two ways to check your recent timesheets. You can go to the ‘Me’ tab, which will give you a weekly overview, including shifts that you’ve done, and shifts you are scheduled for later in the week.
Alternatively, you can click your name in the top right-hand corner, and when the drop-down menu appears, click ‘Your Profile’.
Smartphone applications
You can also check your recent timesheets via the smartphone app. Simply navigate to the ‘Me’ tab, tap ‘Timesheets’ and you will be able to view your recent timesheets.
