Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyGusto clock-in editor subtracts time instead of saving edits
When employees or admins attempt to edit logged clock-in times in Gusto, the system incorrectly subtracts time rather than applying the correction. This directly affects payroll accuracy and requires manual intervention to fix. The bug is situational and may affect a subset of users or specific edit flows.
Gusto Mobile time entries cannot be edited once saved
A user logging hours in Gusto Mobile struggles with entering dates and times, and once an entry is saved its date cannot be edited, forcing them to delete and re-add entries instead.
Gusto Time Tracking Requires Post-Shift Edits and Forces Admins to Use Personal Accounts
Gusto users cannot edit a shift's start time until after the shift ends, forcing awkward after-the-fact corrections, and new admins must initially set up using their personal employee account rather than a dedicated admin account. Both create friction for businesses managing hourly staff and access permissions.
Gusto Session Authentication Errors Cause Missed Clock-Ins for Hourly Workers
Hourly employees using Gusto encounter authentication errors that force re-login exactly when they need to clock in, creating compliance and punctuality risk. For businesses with strict time-tracking requirements, this unreliability undermines the platform's core function.
Gusto portal intermittently blocks login and time-editing access
A Gusto user reports occasional performance issues with the app or web portal that prevent them from logging in or editing their tracked work time.
