How to add a location in Justworks Hours
Adding a new location to your Justworks Hours account takes just a few minutes. First let’s learn how to do so on the Justworks Hours website. To get started, click on ‘Manage’ and then on ‘Locations.
Near the top of the table, you’ll see a button labeled ‘Add New Location’.
After clicking on the button, you’ll name your location and provide an address. (see below for adding a location without an address).
You can also assign new or existing locations to specific employees or departments in Justworks Hours. To do so, click on the ‘Employees’ tab of the location details window. By default your location is assigned to all employees, but if you uncheck the location box you’ll see the option to assign to employees or departments. After you’ve made your assignments, click ‘Save’.
Once you’ve provided the needed information, just click ‘Save’ to finish or ‘Save and Add New’ to add an additional location.
To add a location without a physical address, click on the checkbox marked 'This location does not have a physical address". You can use this option so employees can track time to a shared remote location (even though they may each work from their own homes), so employees can log travel time, or other times when an employee may need to track time from a location that is not pre-determined. Please note, you'll need to set your preferences to allow locations without an address. You can do that here.
