How do I set up geolocations?

Geolocations connect an activity to a physical address with a defined radius. You'll find them in TimeTac under My Company > Geolocations. Once a geolocation is linked to one or more activities, those activities are associated with that location for tracking purposes.

Add a geolocation

Each geolocation needs a name, a centre point on the map, a radius, and at least one linked activity.

Follow these steps

1. Navigate to My Company > Geolocations.
2. Click Add Geolocation.
3. Type an address in the search field, or drag the map to position the centre point.
4. Drag the edge of the circle to adjust the radius.
5. Enter a name for the geolocation (for example, "Office Graz"). The name must be 3–64 characters.
6. Select one or more activities to link to this location.
7. Click Save.

Link a geolocation from an activity

You can also link an existing geolocation directly from an activity, instead of selecting activities while creating the geolocation. This works the same way for general activities and for activities inside a project.

Follow these steps

1. Open the activity:
   • For a general activity, navigate to Activities and projects > General activities.
   • For a project activity, navigate to Activities and projects > Projects and open the project.
2. Click Add activity to create a new one, or click an existing activity row to edit it.
3. In the Geolocations field, select one or more geolocations to link.
4. Click Save.

Edit a geolocation

You can update the name, location, radius, or linked activities at any time.

Follow these steps

1. Navigate to My Company > Geolocations.
2. Click anywhere on the row of the geolocation, or click the edit icon (pencil).
3. Change any of the fields.
4. Click Save.
