Edit Shift Alarms at the account level

Do you need to equip your supervisors with a better way to manage late arrivals or early outs? Then check this article out for the steps to set up Shift Alarms. This is a great feature to monitor punctuality and tardiness, but it will not flag absences on a day where no punches occurred. Shift Alarms are easily enabled with the Shifts feature.
