Quick Start Guide

The Basics

Lets start off on the right foot with a few quick tutorials on how to jump right in and use TimeMD.

Logging In

There are two locations to log in to your TimeMD.com account, from our main page TimeMD.com or from your personalized URL. Find out how to do both below.

Recap

• There are two locations from which you can log in to your TimeMD.com account. One from our main page TimeMD.com and from your personalized URL.
• Your can find your personalized URL in the welcome email that was sent upon creating your account.
• You can recover a lost username and password from the login page. You must have an email address associated with your account in order for the retrieval process to work.
• Certain preference changes to your account may require a log out and then logging back in.

Clocking In & Out

This applies to those using our Web Clock. For those using one of our hardware solutions, the process depends on what device you are using.

There are two ways a punch can be recorded. Either through logging in and viewing the Web Clock directly. Or by taking advantage of the Quick Clock In/Out tool.

Web Clock

The Web Clock is available to all TimeMD.com users. Depending on your account configuration, you may need to choose a Department, Job and/or Task. Simply make the appropriate selection and click either "Clock In" or "Clock Out".

Quick Clock In/Out

For those users who do not need to select a Department, Job and/or Task, they can take advantage of the Quick Clock In/Out process. To do so, be sure to choose "Quick Clock In/Out" from the "Action" field on the login screen. This will clock you in or out depending on whatever action was saved prior to logging in. In other words, if you where clocked in, the system will clock you out. If you where clocked out, the system will clock you in.

Taking Non-Paid Breaks

If your account has been configured to keep track of non-paid breaks, you'll see the orange "Begin Break" button as part of the Web Clock. Simply click this button to either start or end your break.

Departments

All time entries must be tied to a department. That means all employees authorized to track time must be associated to at least one department.

To create a department, you must be signed into your TimeMD.com account as a manager. See "Logging In" above for more information. Once logged in, proceed to "Preferences -> Departments".
