# Enable Auto-Transfer for Time Clocks

**Auto-transfer** streamlines job costing for companies with multiple time clocks by automating job assignments. Instead of manual entries, employees simply confirm their identity; the system then automatically handles clock-ins, clock-outs, and job transfers. This ensures high accuracy and operational efficiency.

**Note:** While Auto-transfer prioritizes speed, **manual tracking** remains a better fit for tasks requiring close supervision, formal cost approvals, or highly flexible hour allocation.

1. Go to **Global Settings > Devices > Time Clock Settings**.
2. Select **Create Rule** and define your audience (**Everyone**, **Specific group**, or **Specific time clock**).
3. Expand the **Display** section and select your preferred viewing options.
4. Expand **Job Costing**, choose a **Default Job**, and select **Enable Auto-Transfer**.
5. Click **Save**. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/88d7ebef-752e-45d9-95e1-ee13bd7279c5/Images/Documentation/image-MF1W2YRW.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T14%3A09%3A57Z&se=2026-11-01T15%3A09%3A57Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=tcrpbdSLjEtET02JyiX3FRGrrsFM95jJdRoJyGylWPY%3D)
