Check-in is a new ritual to start your team's working day. It is a way to feel part of the team, even from a distance. It shows the place and the time the colleagues started the day.
Check-in does not collect statistics of the time worked by an employee. If you track working hours in Bitrix24, continue to use the Working time management tool.
How it works
Before you start your workday, choose what to include in your check-in:
- Post message to chat. Turn this on to send a message to a chat or a specific user. Enter your text. If you skip this option, your workday starts without sending a message.
- Add an image. Take a photo of your workspace or upload any image.
- Share location. Set your location manually or enable automatic sharing.
If the geolocation isn't being sent, the Bitrix24 administrator should check the map provider in the Settings (⚙️) > Bitrix24 Settings > Advanced > Maps section. If Google is selected as the provider but no API key is specified, the geolocation won't be sent. Change the provider to OpenStreetMap.
Then tap Check-in.
When the first person in the chat checks in, a message appears in the chat. Others can react to it.
Cancel a check-in
