Capture & Predefine

Activate Time Tracking

Time tracking can be activated additionally. It is independent of the regular (project) time tracking – and is intended for companies that are legally or contractually obligated to record the start and end of work as well as longer breaks.

The running work time also helps to orientate how long a task has taken or how many project hours should be recorded for the day.

Activation for individual employees Time tracking can be activated with 'Personnel' access rights in the employee's form.
Activation for everyone If time tracking is selected as the basis for the Target-Actual comparison (Settings > Time Tracking), it will automatically be activated for all employees.

Capture

In the regular time tracking, a new row 'Work Start' & 'Work End' is displayed above the input form (1). Use Play and Stop to start the work time with a click and stop it (on the current day) – or use the popup by clicking on the work time to manually capture your work units (2). The breaks are calculated automatically.

Predefine Working Hours & Automatically Fill In

For regulated working hours, the preset makes time tracking much easier. Only minor adjustments are then needed. For other preferences, for example, automatic recording via NFC/RFID tag is also an option.

Preset in the Profile
In the profile settings (1), you can specify the working hours from Monday to Friday under 'Working Hours'.

MOCO enters for you
MOCO offers the predefined times via a blue link during time tracking. If you select the checkbox 'Enter working hours automatically every day' in the settings (2), it will be entered shortly after the start of the new day – and is ready for filling in with project hours at the start of work.

MobileApp, Automation, Button, Terminal

In addition to regular recording via the web interface, there are other alternatives: From the free MOCO iOS or Android app, to NFC tags and physical buttons. For other individual options, the API, the Zapier-Action "Record Presence", and automation via the Shortcuts app (iPhone) are available.

Mobile App

With the free Android and iPhone MOCO MobileApp, project time as well as working hours can be recorded.

Long Press App Icon for Check-In/Check-out
On iOS and Android, a long press on the app icon now also allows you to check in and out for time tracking.

Automation

The iPhone app can be combined with Apple's "Shortcuts" app. MOCO offers two actions for automation: Check-in ("Clocking in" for a new work phase) & Check-out ("Clocking out" to end an ongoing work phase). This allows for various automations to be created.

3 examples of individual automation
With the upgrade to iOS 13, all iPhone 7 and later can read and write NFC tags.
The iPhone is compatible with all NFC Forum chips types 1 to 5, including: NTAG®, ICODE®, FeliCa™, MIFARE® (Desfire, Plus, Ultralight).

Physical Button

Working hours can also be recorded using a button. This works simply and without programming knowledge. We demonstrate this with this case study: "Push the button" – Time tracking made easy – with MOCO & Flic.

Terminal by easy secure

Larger companies looking for a ready-made terminal solution might find what they need at easy secure. Easy secure has developed an integration for MOCO. Until we have more helpful information, if interested, please contact the provider directly: easysecure.com

Documenting Home Office

The time tracking includes an option for documenting home office days.

Print or export documentation:

Under "Work hours", the home office days are displayed in a separate column. The PDF extract there also has a "Home Office" column.

In the Target-Actual export, there is also a "Home Office" column. Per day & person under "Target-Actual" for the person. Per month and person under "Reports" > "Personnel".

See next section:

Filling Work Hours with Project Time

arbeitszeiterfassung und projektzeiterfassung kombinierenEnglish image not yet available...



The difference between project time and working hours can be filled with a single click. This works for both a new entry and an existing one.

Tip for accounts that have automatic rounding of project hours enabled
In general, a small deviation in working hours is not a problem. However, if you want to prevent any deviation, we recommend recording the working hours in quarter-hour or 5-minute steps as well.

Stopwatch automatically ends at the end of working hours

If you use the stopwatch and click on the stop symbol, the running timer for the project time also stops automatically.
