FAQ

Frequently asked questions

I already use practice software for appointments and billing – do I really still need clockin?

Yes – because practice software and time tracking cover two different things. Your practice software manages patient appointments and billing items. clockin records when your employees work – clocking in, clocking out, breaks, time off, sick leave notifications. Since the ECJ ruling, this is an obligation for every employer, whatever practice software you use. The two tools complement each other – they are not in competition.

How do I see how much time my therapists spend on treatment – and where time is lost?

The time reporting in clockin shows you at a glance how working time is distributed – across treatments, breaks, travel or documentation. That way you can see capacity and free slots in your practice without analyzing anything by hand.

How does time tracking work with changing patients and appointments?

Your team clocks in and out with one tap in the clockin app – per appointment, patient or location if you want. Time tracking stays flexible and remains traceable for you at any time.

Can therapists on home visits record their hours on the move?

Yes. Therapists on home visits or at satellite locations record their hours directly on their smartphone with clockin – even offline, if there is no signal.

Can I set up different working time models (part-time, full-time, mini-job)?

Yes. clockin can be set up for different working time models – including target hours and break rules. That way part-time, full-time and mini-job contracts are handled properly.

Can I create shift schedules for my practice with clockin as well?

Yes. With shift planning in clockin you create schedules for reception and treatment by drag and drop. Your team sees its shifts in the app and picks up changes in real time.

Can working hours be corrected afterwards – for example when someone forgot to clock in?

Yes. You can correct recorded hours at any time in your clockin account – whether a therapist forgot to clock in or a shift was entered incorrectly.

Does clockin meet the requirements of the statutory obligation to record working hours?

Yes. With clockin you record working hours in line with the ECJ ruling and the German Federal Labor Court decision of September 2022. That applies to small physical therapy practices too. Through employee self-service your employees also have transparent access to their working hours.
