Events tab

Use the Events tab to view and manage events (i.e. what employees are doing at any given time).

Clocking in or out is called an event within IRIS Cascade, and you can include as many events in a day as required.

Events can be added from a third-party time and attendance system. If your organisation does not use a separate time and attendance system, or if no clock is available on site, you can use a dashboard item to book events.

The following events are included by default:

  • Break

  • Offsite

  • Onsite

From this screen, you can:

  • Update events

  • Delete active events. If the Delete option is greyed out, the event is in use and you cannot delete it

  • Add new events
