Access the clock-in feature

On the home screen, find and navigate to the section labeled Time Management or Time Entry. This section is typically clearly labeled for easy access.

Look for a prominent button or link labeled Clock In or Punch. Before tapping it, verify that your current status is displayed as Not Punched. This step is crucial to avoid accidental double punches and ensures you are ready to record your start time accurately.

Troubleshooting common issues

If you run into problems while clocking in or out, try the following steps:

  • Check your device's location services if you encounter a "location not found" error. Make sure location services are enabled and allowed for the UKG Pro app.
  • Confirm you have a strong, stable internet connection, either through Wi-Fi or cellular data. Unstable connections can prevent the app from recording your punch or loading necessary features.
  • Restart the UKG Pro app to resolve minor glitches. If the issue persists, restart your entire phone to clear any temporary errors.
