Learn how to set up your company, manage employees, approve requests, and work with reports in Working People.
These are the places where admins most often need exact guidance. If you only read a few parts of this guide, read these first.
This connection must be part of the setup. Working People prepares the employee and company rules, while Working Timer is used for daily employee operation. The employee must also have their own Working Timer account.
The employee flow starts on the Employees page and continues through the employee profile, work calendar, and optional Working Timer connection.
Records are created from the employee calendar. Empty days open a new record, existing days open editing, and bulk insert covers repeated ranges.
Requests are the approval layer for vacation, attendance, overtime, and similar workflows. The key is to keep review and final state changes consistent.
Reports help you verify whether configured data is actually producing the expected operational output. Exports are the next step when the result must leave the app.
Beyond the main onboarding flows, these menu items help structure the business, reporting, and operational setup. Users should know what each area is for before they start filling it with data.
Statistics gives you a broader management overview. Use it to compare hours, performance trends, and operational development across the company instead of checking each employee one by one.
Projects are used to organize work into deliverables or internal initiatives. They help you connect work records, reporting, and responsibility to a concrete business objective.
Customers represent the external companies or clients your team works for. Use this section when you need a clear business structure behind projects, work reporting, or invoicing-related logic.
Cost centers help you split work and costs into internal accounting or organizational buckets. This is useful when reporting should reflect departments, units, or operational responsibility.
Activities define the type of work being recorded, such as administration, development, support, or meetings. They make work records and reports much more readable and filterable.
Settings is the place for broader application behavior, defaults, and configuration rules that affect how the workspace operates. Open it when you need to fine-tune the environment beyond employee and company profiles.
Terminals are used for shared clock-in or attendance devices. This section matters when your company records presence through dedicated terminal points rather than only through individual user access.
Start by creating your company, checking the default work settings, and confirming that the basic structure matches how your team works. This gives you a clean base for everything else in the app.
Working People is used for company settings, employees, approvals, and reporting. Working Timer is the daily tool for employee time tracking. The connection between both products is essential because company rules and employee setup from Working People flow into real daily usage in Working Timer. To complete the connection, the employee must already have a Working Timer account.
In the company section, complete your address, country, business details, and work profile. These values influence holidays, defaults for employees, and the overall behavior of attendance-related features.
Add employees, define their work profile, finances, work calendar, roles, and permissions. You can also invite people into the company and lock selected fields when some values should stay managed centrally.
Work records are created from the employee calendar. This is where you add or edit a specific day, correct hours, set the record type, and attach project or activity context.
Use requests for vacation, free days, sick days, and similar records. Attendance and work records can be reviewed, edited, and extended with notes so the daily history remains clear and auditable.
Use statistics, work reports, project reports, and activity reports to review hours, costs, and team performance. Reports are the fastest way to check how data is developing across employees or periods.
Settings controls local application behavior such as cache, 24-hour format, and industrial time. Industrial time is especially important because it changes how worked time is presented in summaries, reports, and exports.
Begin with company settings and your work profile defaults. It is easier to add employees correctly once the core company configuration is ready.
Yes. Company settings, employee profiles, and reporting filters can be adjusted later. The guide is meant to help you create a solid first setup, not lock you into one path.
Use reports once employees are actively recording time, requests, or project work. They become most valuable after the first days or weeks of real usage.
