Overview: Administrators are in charge of the Buddy Punch account and settings. They can view all employee information, take action on pending requests, and add and delete employees. You can have an unlimited number of Administrators.

Important: Administrators are free accounts and don't count against your user count. Because of this, they are also not able to track their own time. If an admin needs to track time, they would need a separate employee account.


Add an Administrator

Start by clicking Employees in the top navigation and once on the Employees page, click +Add a New Employee:

After the user has been added as an Employee, click Settings in the top navigation followed by Administrators:

On the Administrators page, choose the user's name from the dropdown list and then click Add:

The user has now been added as an Administrator.
