A time clock for service advisors on the drive and at the desk.
Service writers and advisors split time between the service drive and the desk. LotHours tracks hourly time accurately across both, captures breaks, and exports payroll-ready hours alongside flat-rate techs in the same department.
Free for employees. Dealerships pay per site, not per employee.
Built for the way you work.
- Track hourly time across the service drive and the desk — each can be its own geofence zone.
- Clock in automatically when you arrive, or punch manually with a photo.
- Break and meal-break tracking with California meal-penalty rules applied where required.
- Hourly advisors and flat-rate techs run side by side — LotHours handles both pay types in one department.
- Text in sick, late, or on break from any phone if you can't get to the app.
- Payroll-ready exports (ADP, Paychex, Gusto, QuickBooks formats) drop your hours straight into payroll.
Questions for your role
Does LotHours handle hourly advisors and flat-rate techs together?+
Yes. Service advisors are typically hourly while techs are flat-rate. LotHours supports both pay types, so a service department can run hourly clock time and flat-rate reconciliation side by side.
Can I track time across the service drive and my desk?+
Yes. The service drive and other areas can each be drawn as their own geofence zones under your site, so your hourly time is captured wherever you are on the property.
What if I'm slammed and forget to clock a break?+
You can start and end breaks from the app or your watch, and you can text in late, sick, or on break from any phone when you can't get to the app.
How do my hours get to payroll?+
Every clock event is timestamped and exports in payroll-ready formats for ADP, Paychex, Gusto, and QuickBooks — and most providers via CSV. Confirm specifics with your payroll partner.
