Client Dashboard: Where to Start

The client dashboard is for a client who runs its own workers in TempClock. This page lists the tasks for each role, in order, with the guide for each one.

Overview

Sign in at /manage.

The menu has two rows. The top row holds the areas: Today, Workforce, Schedule, Time & Pay, Sites, Reports and Setup. Click an area to see its pages in the second row. You only see the pages your role can open.

Before you start

  • Client dashboard, with an account from your account admin or your agency.
  • Tenant admin (Admin role) for the first-week tasks. Tenant manager (Manager role) for the daily tasks.
  • Two-factor authentication set up. See Two-factor Authentication.
