For UKG Ready customers, generating daily timecard reports with tips is essential for staying compliant with IRS regulations and ensuring employees are fairly compensated. However, manually generating these reports across multiple locations can quickly turn into an administrative burden.

That’s where CloudApper AI TimeClock, a certified UKG partner solution, steps in. It automates daily timecard reporting with tips data, eliminates manual errors, and enhances both accuracy and transparency — saving HR and payroll teams hours each week.

The Importance of Tracking Timecards and Tips Data in UKG Ready

Accurate time and tip reporting isn’t just about payroll — it’s about compliance, transparency, and trust.

1. Payroll Accuracy

Incorrect timecards can lead to overpayments, underpayments, or misreported tips, which can result in costly payroll corrections or employee disputes.

2. IRS Compliance

For industries like hospitality, retail, and dining, tip reporting is mandatory. Inaccurate tip data can result in IRS penalties or legal complications.

3. Workforce Transparency

When employees can view, verify, and confirm their recorded hours and gratuities, it builds trust and engagement, reducing friction between HR and staff.

Yet, in many organizations, generating detailed timecard reports that include tip data still requires manual filtering, column mapping, and exporting — a process that’s both time-consuming and prone to human error.

Generating Employee TimeCard Reports 

While UKG Ready offers robust HCM solutions, generating custom timecard reports with tips data can be daunting for some customers. Navigating various filters and columns to extract the specific information needed can lead to inefficiencies and possible errors. Managers often spend excessive time on manual data extraction and compilation, taking away valuable resources that could be better utilized for strategic HR initiatives.

To generate an employee timecard report with tips data in UKG Ready Time Clock, follow these simple steps: log in as an administrator, access the “Reports” tab, choose the “Timecard Detail” report under the “Timecard” section, select the desired date range, apply filters to specify the employee, and include the “Tips” column. Click “Generate Report,” and you’ll receive a comprehensive timecard report with tip data for the specified employee and date range. This report can be exported in various formats for analysis and sharing with stakeholders.

For small teams, this is manageable. But for multi-location operations with hundreds of employees, this manual process becomes a daily bottleneck.

As one HRIS manager shared, “We were spending 45 minutes every morning generating daily timecard reports for each location — it added up to hours every week before CloudApper automated it.”
