A working location is a place your employees work from: an office, a site, a branch. It carries the rules that apply there – which shift is the default, whether Saturday and Sunday are working days, which reasons employees are asked for, and whether punches must be made inside a geo-fence. Set up your locations before you register employees: the registration form asks for a working location, and the employee's geo-fence settings start with the values of that location.
