What is a punch request?

A punch request lets you correct or add time to your timecard when:

  • You forgot to clock in/out

  • You clocked in at the wrong time

  • You missed a punch for a scheduled shift

You can submit punch requests to your admin or supervisor directly from your timecard or the Requests tab in the mobile app.
