Create a Time Clock Form in Microsoft Access. Clock In and Out using Buttons, Prevent Manual Entry
Learn how to create a basic time clock for employees to clock in and out for work, lunch breaks, etc. in your Microsoft Access databases. They will not be able to manually enter or edit records, or go back through previous days.
Austin from Portland OR (a Silver Member) asks: I want to create a simple time clock form so my users can clock in and out for the day, clock out for lunch breaks, and so on. I'd like to use buttons for clocking in and out because I don't want them to be able to edit their times manually. Also, I don't want them to be able to go back to previous days and change their info. How can I do this?
BONUS FOR CHANNEL MEMBERS:
Silver Members and up get access to an EXTENDED CUT of this video which covers additional examples. That video will show you how to create a Main Menu with a simple employee log on with a password. They will then be able to open the time clock form for ONLY their data. They can clock in and close the form if they want. When they go to clock out, the time clock will show the previous record they clocked in under. You will also learn how to disable the clock in button, and close the form when they clock out.

Don't worry...
Thank you, I followed this exactly and I love it. Just what I was looking for. I have a question about the TimeClockT. While I leave Access open to continually time in and out, it does not save each time in and out. It overwrites the timeclockid for the day. How do I get it to save for breaks throughout the day? I noticed if I close Access it will create a new timeClockID which is what I'm looking for. What did I miss? I use MS Access through MS Office 365. thanks

Wonderful video. Went exactly as per that and it worked marvellously. However, my issue is that it runs on one PC and the same file, when copied on another PC, doesn't work. To explain, Clock In and Clock Out buttons when pressed, do not result in display of any data in the Time In and Time Out Fields on the Form

Hey I've done everything and followed this video but when I clicked the buttons the Time In section just stays blank. The cursor just disappears and I've redone this countless times and ended up with the same result. I need help please

Without seeing your database, it's impossible for me to tell what you've done wrong. Try again, from the beginning, in a new blank database (or with my free template) and don't skip any steps.

That's basically just two date/time values without times, so those dates at midnight. The video should work fine for you.
Suppose you have more then one employee you can't just leave it open, you need to add record then clear for the next guy,

Sure. You can do whatever you like. That's the beauty of building your own database with Access. My goal with this video was to show you the time portion. Obviously you'll want to embellish.
How do I make a report that shows the employee names instead of Id
@599CD

You bring the employee name into the query, and then the report
One button works even though I copied it and added the code for the other one it won't record the time
