Send an Email or Text Notification when an Employee Punches

Maybe your busy schedule keeps you away from your computer, yet you still want to be notified when someone clocks in or out. uAttend's versatile notification system can keep you informed via email or text, here’s how to set that up.

Notes:

• Supervisors can be configured with permissions to view and/or edit employees.  Their responsibility can also be limited to certain departments, thereby limiting which employee profiles they can access.
• Additional fees apply for the use of uText notifications.
• Refunds are not granted for "unused" features, devices, users, or services.  See the End User License Agreement.
• The email addresses/phone numbers used must be unique.  
• This feature only sends notifications for clocking in and out; it does not notify for lunch or break punches.
