In ZevBit, Company/Shop Tasks is a default project that allows employees to record time spent on internal work that is not associated with a specific client's project.
This option is useful for tracking work performed at the shop, warehouse, or office, as well as other operational tasks that support the business.
Clocking into Company/Shop Tasks ensures that internal labor time is recorded accurately while keeping it separate from project-related work.
When to Use Company or Shop Tasks
Employees should clock into Company/Shop Tasks whenever they are performing work for the company that is not tied to a customer project.
Common examples include:
Equipment preparation and maintenance
Cleaning tools, repairing equipment, or preparing materials for upcoming jobs.
Shop or warehouse work
Organizing inventory, fabricating materials, or preparing supplies before heading to a job site.Morning preparation or job planning
Attending team meetings, reviewing the day’s assignments, or loading trucks before leaving for a project location.Administrative tasks
Completing paperwork, updating internal records, or performing office-related work.Training and internal meetings
Participating in safety training sessions, process training, or company meetings.End-of-day shop tasks
Returning equipment, unloading trucks, cleaning tools, or preparing materials for the next workday.
Using Company/Shop Tasks for these activities helps businesses clearly separate internal labor time from project labor time.

What Happens After Clocking In
While clocked into Company/Shop Tasks, ZevBit records the duration of the work session just like it does for project work.
The system tracks the employee’s start time and continues recording the session until the employee starts a break, switches tasks, or clocks out.
Note: “Break” option won’t be available within the first hour of clocking in.
Once the session is active, the employee’s work time is automatically recorded in the system.
When viewing this activity in the Timesheets feature, the employee’s entry will appear under their designated Crew team filter.
In the Project column, the entry will display Company/Shop Tasks to indicate that the recorded time corresponds to internal company work.
After the employee clocks out, the total duration of the session becomes part of their daily recorded work hours and remains visible in the Timesheets record.
