Clox

Owner / Admin quick reference

One-page cheat sheet for shop owners running their own payroll. Print it, post it on the wall.

About this role

You run the shop from the web app at app.getclox.com: setup, approvals, reports, payroll exports, and billing.
Your crew clocks in from their phones. On iPhone they install the app from your TestFlight invite (Android coming soon), or clock in from a phone browser. One tap to clock in and out.
Optional: a shared tablet in kiosk mode lets a crew without smartphones punch in with a PIN.

Open Team → Pending approvals. Approve the week's shifts.
Open Reports → Export. Set the date range to the past week. Click CSV.
Open QuickBooks (or your payroll provider) → Run Payroll → Import time.
Upload the CSV. Review the import preview. Submit.
Save the PDF export for records (workers' comp + DOL retention).
For a record a client or auditor can verify themselves, export Proof of presence from Reports. It is tamper-evident, so they can confirm it was not edited after the fact.

Settings → Shift behavior: auto-clock-out, require project tag, rounding. (Overtime thresholds and lunch deductions are set per-employee on the Team page.)
Settings → Notifications: weekly summary, missed clock-out reminders, approval requests.
Settings → Subscription: seat count matches actual employees? Annual plan saves 20%.
