2. On the Locations page, select the work location you wish to configure
3. Select Timesheets.
4. In Clock in and out, you can see a toggle ON / OFF to set whether you require team members to take a photo when starting or ending a shift on the mobile app.
Note: This setting is OFF by default.

What will my team members experience when clocking in and out?
Once you have enabled photo verification for your location, when your team members sign into the Deputy mobile app and tap Start Shift or End Shift, their mobile device will take a photo of their face.

The images taken are then visible on the Approve Timesheet page on the Deputy website.
This image on the timesheet is generally the most recent photo taken from when they clocked out.
