Save is greyed out: Ensure any required fields are set (e.g., select a time when using Time auto clock-out).

Automatic clock-out not triggering: Confirm the type (Time vs Duration) matches your use case and values are valid.

Employees can’t clock in without a shift: Check Allow Clock-In Without Shift? is enabled under General.
