Geofence setup and usage

A geofence is a geographic area that is defined as a "known place" in the system.

The geography of a known place can be a GPS latitude/longitude combination, a Wi-Fi Network, or both. Known places are associated with jobs in the business structure. A mobile device can detect its location when an employee punches in and out. Based on the system setup, a punch can be notated or declined based on if the employee is inside a known place when attempting to punch.

Geofencing uses the known place parameters (GPS, Wi-Fi Networks, Wi-Fi Access Points) to determine if an employee is in the proper place when attempting to punch.

Tracking geofence setup (Audit Report)

Audit Report for geofencing.

Any changes to the Known Places, Wi-Fi Networks, and Wi-Fi Access Points configurations can be tracked with the Audit Report for System Configuration.

Tracking geofence punches (Dataviews)

Dataview for tracking geofencing.

You can use a dataview to view location details for geofenced punches. A "Timecard Transactions" dataview can be configured to capture the following information for both In and Out punches:

Known Place
Location detection method used for the punch (GPS or Wi-Fi).
GPS coordinates (latitude / longitude) - The GPS coordinates will appear here regardless of the Known Place or location detection method used for the punch. If the GPS coordinates were not detectable from the device when the punch occurred, these cells will be blank in the dataview.
Wi-Fi Network - If location detection method used for the punch is Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi Access Point - If location detection method used for the punch is Wi-Fi.
