A time tracking app for employees
Each employee signs in with their own user, sees their shifts and clocks in and out. There is no clock to install at the door and no timesheets to collect at month end.

Time tracking app for employees
Employees clock in and out from the app, the browser or by scanning a QR code at the work site. Managers see who is at work, correct and approve, and export an hours file for the payroll software at the end of the month. All in the same system as shifts, HR and payroll.

What is included
Time tracking from clock-in to payroll
What the employee does, what the manager checks, and what goes to payroll
Location-checked clock-in
Draw a geofence around the work site on a map. When it is on, a clock-in from the app, the browser or a QR scan outside the zone is refused, and the location is saved with the record.
Photo at clock-in
You can require a photo when an employee clocks in, after the employee gives consent. A manager with permission sees the photo next to the record, and old photos can be purged.
Clock in without signal
On a site with no reception the punch is stored on the phone with the time it was made and sent when the signal returns. A manager approves or rejects it before the hours count.
Corrections and manager approval
Managers correct hours, approve each employee's month and lock a closed month. Every change is recorded in a changes report: who changed what, and when.
Late and forgotten clock-out alerts
When an employee misses a shift or arrives late, the manager gets an in-app alert. A record left open too long appears in a review list and can be closed.
Check against the Hours of Work and Rest Law
Records are checked against 6 rules: a missing or short break on a day longer than 6 hours, 8 hours of rest between days, 36 hours of weekly rest, up to 12 hours a day and up to 42 a week. A breach is flagged to the manager.
Hours file for the payroll software
At month end you export a file with each employee's work days and hours, in the Hilan, Michpal, Shiklulit or Oketz format, or a generic Excel file.
Hours per task
At clock-in an employee can pick one of their open tasks, and at clock-out the hours are logged against that task.

Why it is different
Time tracking connected to shifts and payroll
Hours are recorded against the planned shift, checked against the law and sent to payroll without retyping.
Recording hours from the field
For employees who never reach the office: a geofence per site, a photo at clock-in and punches that are kept even without signal.
Workforce and shifts →From clock-in to payroll
Approved hours go to a file for your payroll software, or on to payslips in the Lynxbe payroll module.
Payroll and payslips →Related modules: Workforce and shifts · HR and employee files · Payroll and payslips · Field sales teams
The common ways to track hours are an Excel sheet or paper timesheet, a physical time clock (card, fingerprint or tag), a dedicated attendance system (such as Synerion, Meckano or Hilan attendance), and a generic time tracking app (such as Toggl or Clockify). The comparison is by type of tool, not by a specific tool; where it says "depends on the tool", check with the vendor.
| Topic | Excel or paper timesheet | Physical time clock | Attendance system (Synerion, Meckano, Hilan) | Time tracking app (Toggl, Clockify) | Lynxbe |

| Export to payroll software | Retyping | Through the clock's own software | Available in most tools | Depends on the tool | Files for Hilan, Michpal, Shiklulit, Oketz and Excel |
| Shifts and tasks in the same system | Separate files | No | Depends on the tool | Hours per project in most tools | Shifts, tasks, HR and payroll |

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about this module
How do employees clock in and out with Lynxbe?
From the iPhone or Android app, from the browser, or by scanning a QR code at a clock-in point on site. The business chooses which ways are open and what each one checks: location, a photo or the office IP address. Another system can also report through the API.
Time tracking app: what does the manager see?
Each employee's records, late arrivals and early departures against the shift, records left open, and daily and monthly reports. Managers correct hours, approve each employee's month and lock a closed month, and every change is recorded in a changes report.
Does the app record work hours without signal?
Yes. With no signal the punch is stored on the phone with the time it was made and sent when the signal returns. It does not enter the hours on its own: a manager approves or rejects it, and it counts only after approval.
Can I check that the employee is on site?
Yes. Draw a geofence on a map around each work site. When it is on, a clock-in outside the zone is refused and the location is saved with the record. You can also require a photo at clock-in, after the employee gives consent. The location is checked at the moment of the punch.
Does it calculate 125% and 150% overtime?
Yes, in the payroll module. The payroll calculation prices overtime at 125% (from hour 8.6 to 10.6 in a day) and 150% (beyond that), and adds night and Shabbat premiums. On the attendance screen, hours beyond 8 in a shift are flagged as overtime and the cost estimate shown there prices them at 125%. If your payroll is run by an external provider, you can export an hours file in the Hilan, Michpal, Shiklulit, Oketz or Excel format.
Can employees clock in by WhatsApp or on a physical time clock?
No. There is no clock-in by WhatsApp message, no ready connection to a physical time clock and no kiosk mode for a shared tablet. Employees clock in from the app, the browser or by scanning a QR code, and an external system can report through the API.
Which payroll software can the hours be exported to?
At month end you produce a file with each employee's work days and hours in the Hilan, Michpal, Shiklulit or Oketz format, or a generic Excel file. You can also issue payslips in the Lynxbe payroll module. There is no automatic two-way sync with payroll software.
Does it check the Hours of Work and Rest Law?
It flags breaches; it does not certify that the business complies. Records are checked against 6 rules: a missing break or one shorter than 45 minutes on a day longer than 6 hours (30 minutes on the eve of a rest day), 8 hours of rest between work days, 36 consecutive hours of weekly rest, up to 12 hours a day and up to 42 hours a week.
