Roster · Kangaroo Clock glossary

A roster is the list of workers, paid staff, volunteers, contractors, that an organization tracks. In time-tracking systems, the roster is the master record of who can clock in.

The roster is the foundational data in any time-tracking system: until someone is on the roster, they can't be tracked. Roster management is therefore the first operational concern when adopting a time tracker, getting the right people added, deactivating people who leave, keeping contact info current.

Common roster operations:

Add a new worker (typed name, optional email and phone)
Import a roster in bulk (CSV upload, or via integration with a signup tool)
Archive someone who's no longer with the organization (keeps their historical hours data but removes them from active lists)
Group workers (by program, by location, by role) for easier filtering

The terminology varies: roster, team, staff list, member list. The concept is the same. Kangaroo Clock lets each workspace pick its preferred term, "Workers," "Volunteers," "Staff," "Crew," etc., which then appears throughout the UI.
