Setting up geofenced attendance

5 min read

“I was there, honest” doesn’t hold up in an audit. OpsCore’s attendance is geofenced: a check-in only counts inside the site boundary, with an optional verification selfie and a GPS + timestamp record.

How it works

  1. Draw a geofence around each site (a centre point and a radius in metres).
  2. When an operative taps Check in, OpsCore confirms they’re inside the zone and captures the time, location accuracy and — if you require it — a selfie for face verification.
  3. Check-outs and checkpoint scans build a complete on-site record.

Timesheets that build themselves

Because attendance is real, timesheets assemble from it — no chasing paper. Each line is marked Signed (worker-attested) or Instructed (manager-directed), so payroll gets clean, defensible hours.

Per-industry defaults

  • Construction & site services: geofence + selfie on by default; checkpoint patrols for security rounds.
  • Care: optional geofence; face verification proves the right carer attended.
  • Hospitality: rota clock-in that feeds payroll.

Set it up

  1. In the admin app, open a Site and set its geofence radius.
  2. Toggle selfie check-in and checkpoints to match your policy.
  3. Your crew check in from the OpsCore mobile app — offline-friendly, so a poor signal never blocks a start.

The result: payroll-ready hours without chasing anyone, and zero “were they really there?” moments.
