Configure Geolocation (optional)

Objective

The Virtual Time Clock can register the geo coordinates of the employee. In standard, this functionality is enabled. Optionally, you can also deactivate 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.
