      Enable Geofence Settings for Time Tracking

      Customize location-based time tracking and notifications for your projects within the ConstructionOnline™ Mobile app

      BACKGROUND

      ConstructionOnline's Advanced Time Tracking includes intelligent Geolocation Settings with automatic clock-in/out notifications based on the user's proximity to assigned jobsites. By customizing geofence radius and tracking schedules, you can ensure time tracking and notifications align with how and when your team works—keeping your project data accurate and timely. 

      ⚠️ Important: Make sure Location Access is enabled for the ConstructionOnline Mobile app in your device's settings. Geofencing relies on location services to function properly.
