Clock-in is not productive hours - stop mixing attendance and delivery
Being in the office and shipping project work are two different signals. BaseCrew keeps them apart on purpose.

Ops teams care that people showed up. Delivery leads care that projects moved. When one number tries to answer both, you get soft KPIs and loud arguments.
BaseCrew keeps an attendance clock (in, lunch, out) separate from task timers. Calendar and KPI views can use both without pretending they mean the same thing.
A practical example: someone clocks eight hours but only three hours sit on active tasks. That is not automatically "lazy" - it might be meetings, blockers, or missing project access. The separate signals help you ask the right follow-up.
If your current tool collapses everything into "hours worked," try reporting attendance and task effort side by side for one sprint. Leadership conversations get sharper fast.
