Manage Geo Fence Locations Page

The Manage Geo Fence Locations page lets you set geo fence overrides for specific workgroups. These overrides take priority over installation settings.

Navigation:

Workforce Administrator home page, and then Time and Labor tile, and then Manage Geo Fence Overrides

This example illustrates the Manage Geo Fence Overrides page.

Manage Geo Fence Locations

To add location overrides, click the Add Override button. This displays the Override Details modal.

Override Details Modal

You can define a geo fence location override for a workgroup by specifying an address or directly entering latitude and longitude coordinates. Overrides allow different workgroups to have customized geo fencing policies according to business needs.

Note:

Workgroup overrides take precedence over the global installation settings.

Override Details
Field or Control Description

Use Existing Work Location

Selecting this option lets you choose a predefined location instead of manually entering location details.

Address fields

The fields are displayed as per the HR Address Setup. For details on address fields, see Enterprise Components: Specifying Address Formats.

Get Coordinates

Click the Get Coordinates button to get latitude and longitude. Alternatively, you can manually enter the location coordinates.

Note: Coordinates are required.

Latitude

Longitude

Variance Radius

Enter the number of meters the employee can be from the work location. Leave blank to require employees to be exactly at the specified location.

Deviation Action

Specify the deviation action whether to allow the time reporter to proceed with the punch (generating an exception) or to refuse the punch.

Workgroup

Select one or more Workgroups to which these overrides must be applied.

To establish an override, you must specify at least one of the following for the workgroup: a location (address or coordinates), a deviation action, or a variance radius. Any override defined for a workgroup takes precedence over the general installation settings and remote worker configurations. This ensures the selected workgroup adheres to the custom geo fencing rules you have specified.

Note:

For any fields left blank, the system uses the installation-level settings.
