How to set up time tracking for employees working from home.

Managing employees working from home is simplified with individual time tracking . The Pontotel platform allows employees to easily and securely record their work hours directly from their computer or personal mobile device .


For this to work, the setup process is divided into two steps: first, creating the user's access and then guiding the employee to configure the device they will use for registration.


1. How to create an "employee" user


The first and most important step is to ensure that the employee has a personal login and password. They will not be using a shared device, but rather their own individual access.

To do this, you must create a user for them with the specific "Employee" . This type of access restricts the employee's view to their own timesheet only.



2. How to set up the individual collector


After the personal user account is created (with email and password defined), the employee must log in for the first time on the device they will use for work.

This initial access "registers" the device (computer or cell phone) as an individual data collector on the platform.


Choose the method by which the employee will be registered:


  • Clocking in via Mobile Phone (App): If the employee wants to clock in using their smartphone or tablet, they must download the BatePonto App and log in with the user account they created.



Done! After creating a personal user with the appropriate permissions and the user logs in for the first time to the BatePonto App or Website, they will be able to record their work hours while working from home.
