Working with the optional Time Clock in NSPOS

NetSuite Point of Sale (NSPOS) includes optional time clock features to allow employees to log the beginning and end of their work shift. Because it is optional, it may not be installed for your business. If it is installed, any employee set up in NSPOS can clock in and out at any register.

The time clock is separate from the register sign on / sign off required to perform sales transactions. Employees temporarily taking over the screen to clock in or clock out do not affect the status of a cashier that is currently signed on.

Note:

We do not integrate the POS time clock with NetSuite or any third-party software.

You or a manager can use the Time Punch Report to review time clock entries and provide them to your human resources department.

To clock in or clock out:

  1. In Sales Mode or Closed Mode, tap the Clock In or Clock Out button.

    Note:

    If the register is in Sales Mode and has a sales transaction on screen, the sales associate must complete or cancel the transaction. The time clock is not available during a transaction.

  2. Enter your User ID and Password.

  3. Tap Confirm.

  4. Tap the Time clock operation successful prompt to close it.

Edit Time Punch

Use Edit Time Punch when an employee has already clocked in or out, but the time logged is incorrect. For example, edit a time punch when an employee clocked out but continued to work when they realized their help was still needed.

Note:

By default, the Manager Functions button is located on the main (bottom) button bar in the Journal window. Your company’s custom setup may have the button in a different location or under a different name.

To edit a time punch:

  1. Tap Manager Functions.

  2. Tap Team Mgt.

  3. Tap Edit Time Punch.

  4. Search for and select the Worker (employee).

  5. Search for the existing Time Punch Entry.

  6. Select a Reason for the edit.

  7. For Correct Time field, select the desired time punch date and enter the time.

  8. Tap Done.

Create Time Punch

Use Create Time Punch when an employee forgot to clock in and/or out.

To create a new time punch:

  1. Tap Manager Functions.

  2. Tap Team Mgt.

  3. Tap Create Time Punch.

  4. Select the Punch Direction. Clocking in and out each requires a separate time punch.

  5. Search for and select the Worker (employee).

  6. For Time field, select the time punch date and enter the time.

  7. Tap Done.

  8. Repeat if needed to show both clock in and clock out for a shift.
