How time tracking works in Ontraccr

Time tracking in Ontraccr consists of four main parts (in order):

Users can track their time in the mobile app, web app, and/or Tablet Mode. When time cards are ready for submission, they can be submitted from any of the apps and the assigned approvers can approve them from the mobile or web apps. Lastly, if you've connected Ontraccr to any of the supported accounting integrations, then approved time cards can sync into the corresponding accounting application automatically.

Notes and considerations

  • Submission (2) and approval (3) steps are essentially optional, this really just comes down to whether you want your team to submit and approve time cards in Ontraccr. Otherwise, you can also get by with only time card entry (1). 
  • Payroll syncing (4) is only relevant to your time tracking process if you've integrated a supported accounting tool with Ontraccr. If you have an active integration, once time cards are fully approved, they can sync into your accounting software automatically.
