Where hours come from
Every tech clock-in/clock-out creates a time entry automatically — with clock-in location, vehicle (Company or Personal), breaks, and miles driven from odometer readings. No paper timesheets, no texted hours.

Review the Timesheets page
Timesheets shows each entry: Tech, Clock in, Clock out, Hours, Breaks, Vehicle, Miles driven, and Clock-in location. Filter by tech and date range, and sanity-check the summary stats — Total hours, Avg hrs/shift, Miles.

Approve or reject entries
In the Approval column, click Approve on clean entries. Something off — a 14-hour shift from a forgotten clock-out? Reject it and have the tech resubmit. Only approved hours should flow to payroll, so make approval a weekly ritual before you run pay.

Pay rates do the math
Wages come from the rate on each tech's profile: hourly techs earn their Hourly rate against approved hours; Per job techs earn their per-job rate times completed jobs. Techs see their own Est. wages in their portal, which keeps "what am I getting paid?" texts to a minimum.
