Welcome to the Report Center
This is where you’ll generate reports, review timesheets, and get a full view of your team’s hours, from clock-ins and clock-outs to daily totals. It’s everything you need to prep for payroll.
The Report Center, along with Modify Times, is one of the most-used parts of TimeClick. This is where all your employee data comes together before payday.
The basic workflow: Employees clock in and out → You fix any errors or missed punches in Modify Times → Then you run your final payroll reports here in the Report Center.
TIMECLICK TIP
This guide is for TimeClick 25. If you’re using TC 21 or an older version, the process is mostly the same. You’ll just notice a few visual differences in menus and buttons.
Report Center Sections: Reports, Payroll Reports and Location Viewer
Click Report Center in the Admin Options menu on the left to see three options under it:
- Reports: The main area for reviewing and printing timesheets.
- Payroll Reports: Pre-formatted reports made for payroll systems like QuickBooks, Gusto, ADP, and Passport.
- Location Viewer: A map of where employees clocked in and out from TimeClick Mobile.
Let’s start with Reports.
Reports
Inside Reports, every report follows a similar setup:
- At the top left, under Report Selection, choose the report type you want to run.
- At the top right, use Include to choose which employees, departments, or jobs to include.
- Below the report type, set your date range with Begin Date and End Date (or Prev, Current and Next). Then customize the report settings underneath.
Hours Report
The Hours Report is the most popular report in TimeClick. It gives you a complete look at your team’s time, perfect for payroll prep or deeper tracking.
Quick Start: A Simple Payroll Report
- In the Report Center, select Hours Report.
- Set your date range (usually the current or previous pay period).
- Under Include on Hours Report, make sure these are checked (they are checked by default):
- Daily Clock Actions
- Day Totals
- Report Totals
- Overtime (OT)
- Click View Report at the bottom left. It will open as a PDF.
Advanced Options: Go Deeper
For more detail, include Weekly and Grand Totals, Department and Job summaries, or Break details. Customize it however you need.
Additional Options (Right Side)
To keep things clean, TimeClick hides most extra settings under a panel on the right side. Think of it as your Advanced Options drawer. It’s great for power users who want more control but easy to skip if you just need a quick report.
Essential Settings: Sorting and Hours Format. You’ll use these often.
Optional Advanced Controls: Enable “Show Advanced Settings” to access rounding options, font size, comments, or one page per employee.
Viewing & Saving Reports
When everything looks right, click View Report to open the report as a PDF preview. To save a file instead, use the Save As PDF or Save As CSV buttons next to View Report. CSV is the one to use if you plan to import it into Excel or a payroll system.
Other Report Types
TimeClick offers a range of other reports, including:
- Summary
- Legacy Hours
- Accrued Time History
- Department / Job
- Payroll Projection
- Attendance
- Punctuality
- Employee Information
Custom Templates
If you often run the same report setup, you can save time by creating a custom template. Go to Templates → Default Settings → Create New Custom Template, configure your preferred options, give it a name, and click Save.
Payroll Reports
Payroll Reports lets you export reports directly to major payroll systems, including QuickBooks Desktop, QuickBooks Online, Gusto, ADP Workforce Now, and Passport, Inc. Choose your system under Payroll Provider, set the dates and rounding, then click View Report.
Final Tips
For payroll, use the Hours or Summary Reports. If you just need an estimate, try the Payroll Projection report. Always double-check your employee selections and date ranges before exporting.
And don’t forget: saving custom templates can make your next payroll run even faster.
