How to edit time log entry on the Back Office Dashboard?

The Time Log provides a detailed record of guard clock-in and clock-out times at client post sites. It displays shifts and breaks in chronological order, making it easier to review attendance and identify schedule discrepancies.

If a guard has multiple shifts at the same post site on the same day, each shift and its associated breaks are displayed separately.

📌 Prerequisites

Before managing a time log entry, make sure:

• You have access to the Time Log section.
• You have the required permissions to edit time log entries.
• The time log entry you want to update is available in the system.

✅ This guide helps you to view, edit, manage, and export Time Log entries from the Back Office Dashboard.

Step 1: View and Filter Time Logs

1. From the main menu, go to Time Clock > Time Log.
2. Review the available time log entries.
3. Use the available filters to quickly find the required entries.

📌 Important: You can filter time logs by Client, Guard, Post Site, Skill Set, Department, Entry Type, or Date Range.

Step 2: Edit a Time Log Entry

1. Locate the time log entry you want to edit.
2. Click the three dot (⋮) icon next to the respective time log entry.
