Auto Clock Out

Lavu introduced a new feature, “Auto Clock Out,” in the Lavu customer portal. The primary purpose of this feature is to automatically clock out all the employees who are clocked in at the customer location to eliminate the need for managers to do manual employee clock-outs at the end of each day. The automatic clock-out is a configurable time that can be managed in the Lavu customer portal.


This article helps to understand the end-to-end user flow of the Auto Clock Out feature.


Log in to the Lavu Control Panel, Navigate into Extensions settings, click the “More” button, search for Auto Clock Out extension, and enable the feature.

Notes: 

  • The default cutoff time is set at 4.00 AM based on the customer location timezone.
  • The cut-off time can be changed in the “Auto Clock Out” section in Settings -> Location -> Advanced Location Settings in the Lavu Control Panel.
