The Hidden Challenge

Even though UKG TimeClock provides robust reporting capabilities, many organizations find the process:

  • Time-intensive: Managers must configure parameters manually every time.
  • Training-dependent: Creating custom reports requires UKG University training or experienced admins.
  • Non-automated: Data must be exported manually — slowing access to real-time insights.
  • Reactive, not proactive: Managers often discover excessive overtime only after it has already occurred.

When managers can’t spot overtime trends in real time, labor costs increase, productivity drops, and compliance risks rise.
