WebRun checks TimeClock Plus every day for missed clock-ins and clock-outs from the day before. It saves a dated exceptions report to Google Drive and texts the supervisor via Twilio with their department's missed punches, so timekeeping gets corrected the same day instead of causing a payroll error later.

  • Missed punches get corrected the same day, not at payroll
  • Supervisors get a texted list for their own department
  • A dated audit trail builds up in Google Drive

Questions, answered

Does it correct the missed punch?

No. WebRun only reports it. Correcting a clock-in or clock-out stays a decision your supervisor makes in TimeClock Plus.

Does it contact the employee directly?

No, the text goes to the supervisor only. WebRun never messages the employee about a missed punch.

What if the punch is corrected the same day?

It reads the live record in TimeClock Plus the next morning, so a corrected punch doesn't reappear in the following report.

Put this on autopilot.
