Begin can send push notifications to remind employees to clock in and out via the mobile app. You can set company-wide defaults and per-employee overrides. This article explains how to configure notifications.
Company-wide reminder settings
Go to Settings → Mobile app
Scroll to the reminder schedule section
For each day of the week (Monday through Sunday), set:
Start time — when to send the clock-in reminder
End time — when to send the clock-out reminder
Set a day to "Never" to disable reminders for that day (e.g., disable Saturday and Sunday for office workers).
Per-employee notification settings
Go to Employees and click the employee's name
Click the Notifications tab
Configure three notification types:
Absence email notifications — receive emails when absence-related events occur
Fever alert email notifications — receive emails when a fever is detected by a biometric terminal
App clock-in/out reminders — receive push notifications to remind them to start and end their day
Custom reminder schedule per employee
When App clock-in/out reminders is enabled for an employee, a per-day schedule appears. For each day you can choose:
Follow company settings — use the default times from Settings → Mobile app
Custom time — set a specific time for this employee
Never — disable the reminder for this day
This is useful for employees with non-standard schedules who need reminders at different times than the company default.
Other mobile app settings
The Settings → Mobile app page also controls:
GPS requirement — whether GPS location is required for app clock-in/out
Timesheet in app — whether employees can view their timesheet in the app
Start new job — whether employees can switch jobs mid-shift from the app
Photo uploads — whether employees can take and upload photos from the app
