End-of-Shift Schedule Reminders in VeriClock – VeriClock

Learn how to use end-of-shift notifications in VeriClock. This guide explains how to set global or per-shift reminders, configure auto clock-out and time guard options, choose notification recipients and methods, and review or resolve time-guarded events to keep timecards accurate and payroll-ready.

Notifications can be sent to remind employees to clock out, auto clock out employees at a scheduled time, or auto clock out + flag clock events when employees forget to clock out.

Note: **Employees must be clocked into the same job scheduled in a shift, for end of shift alerts to trigger.**

Global Shift Reminders - Default shift reminders can be set to auto-apply to all shifts added to the schedule. See: Settings -->Scheduling -->ensure Enable Scheduling Feature is checked.

Click on Add Alert and select the Set Default End Of Shift option from the drop down list.
The end of shift alert can be set to trigger X minutes after shift end time, or a negative time can be used to remind employees to clock out just before the shift is set to end.
Select whom should be notified and any notification methods.
Auto clock out employees at the time the alert triggers. This can be used for employees who finish at the shift end time to automate clock out (Optional). Note: **Employees who are auto clocked out will not be able to fill out fields on their clock out page.**
Timeguards can be used to auto clock out + flag a clock event if the employee does not clock out when they are supposed to. This highlights the clock event, giving admin/managers time to edit the timecard with the actual time the employee left work (Optional).
Optional comments can be added to the notification to explain the notification, or with additional instructions.
