ASP's ClickClock Terminal app allows your employees to clock in and out iPad and iPhones. The ClickClock ecosystem consists of several parts – the https://www.clickclock.com.au web site (for management, configuration, and administration), a mobile tablet or phone app, and interfaces to your Time and Attendance system and/or Job Tracking system. ClickClock devices can prompt for the job that the user is working on, or the location, or the department, or any combination. Your Time and Attendance and/or Job Tracking program then connects to the cloud database via the internet to download this data. All ClickClock devices connect to ClickClock Cloud via the internet to get most of their configuration settings, and also to store collected data.
