Employees can record what they are working on in Ask The Crowd from the Focus Area of MyTime
Integrate Ask The Crowd to enable employees to record the inputs they are working on during each working session. This allows users and managers to keep track of what was been done and who has been working on what.
Users must be Employees and Ask The Crowd Users to use Focus.
Organisations must enable the Ask The Crowd integration in Settings to use the Focus area of MyTime.
The Focus page is only available to users who are clocked in, it will appear in the menu when users are clocked in and be hidden when users clock out.
- To clock-in click the Clock In button on the top right hand of any page. This button appears on every page.
- When you have clocked-in you will be redirected to the Focus page and a pop-up will appear asking you to choose the Ask The Crowd inputs you are working on today, if you are not ready to do this yet simply close the pop up.
