Register time at home office in My Capitech

If your organization uses the home office feature in My Capitech, home office can be added automatically to your time entry. First, add your home office as a location under My user - Home office.

What does home office mean in My Capitech?

Home office indicates that you have worked from home.

After you save a home office location, My Capitech can automatically suggest home office when you register time at the saved location.

Your company cannot see your GPS location. The registration only shows that the hours were recorded against the company’s default home office location.

How to add a home office location

Go to My user.
Open the Home office tab.
Select New location.
Add your home office location.
Save.

You can add multiple locations if you work from home in different places, such as Home and Cabin.

Be aware that your PC and mobile device may register your location slightly differently. If you use both a PC and a mobile device to register time, you can save one home office location from your PC and another from your mobile device. This increases the chance that home office will be suggested automatically, regardless of which device you use.

Go to the calendar in My Capitech.
Select the day for which you want to register time.
Select Register time, In, or Quick add, depending on how you register your hours.
