Location history reports in Atto are invaluable for monitoring team member movements throughout their workday, providing a detailed snapshot of work activities and locations. This guide simplifies the process of generating and accessing these reports, ensuring you have the insights needed for effective team management.
Preparing for Location History Reports:
-
Enable Location Tracking: Ensure the "While on the clock" tracking is activated in your account settings for accurate location data.
-
Set Device Permissions: Team members must allow Atto continuous access to their device's location services—'Always Allow' on iOS and 'Allow all the time' on Android.
Viewing Location History Reports:
- Open the Atto Mobile App and go to the “Reports Tab.”
- Make sure the “Timesheets” tab is selected.
- Choose a Team Member and the specific time card you want to review.
- In the “Time Card” view, you'll see comprehensive data for the selected team member. Tap on the map, if available, to view that time card's location history report.
What's Included in the Report:
Reports showcase:
-
Clock-in and clock-out times and locations.

Editing Location History Reports:
