Deactivate Geolocation (optional)

Objective

The Virtual Time Clock can register the geo coordinates of the employee. This tutorial will teach you how to deactivate this function, in case you don't want to use it.
Geolocation is a feature which can be used by employees tracking time with mobile devices. If you track times via a Time Clock Terminal or a Virtual Time Clock on their office computer, this tutorial does not apply to you.
