01
A private PIN, not a shared code
Each person has their own 6-digit PIN. They can clock in, clock out, start a break or finish a break. The system blocks the wrong sequence — for example clocking out when they never clocked in, or clocking in twice.
02
Keeps working if the network drops
While online, the tablet quietly stores a protected list of valid PINs. If the connection fails, staff still clock. Wrong PINs are rejected on the device. Entries wait in a queue and upload when the signal returns.
03
Weekly hours on the tablet
Staff can check Monday to Sunday hours and a week total on the same device, in the company language. If a manager later corrects a missed clock-out, the hours on the tablet update straight away.
04
Open shifts are flagged after 12 hours
If someone clocks in and never clocks out, the shift appears in Exceptions after 12 hours. The site manager enters the real finish time, approves it, and their name is written in the audit log. Payroll does not silently keep a 14-hour day.
05
Payroll Excel your accounts team can open
The file includes employee, site, hourly rate, gross hours, break hours, net payable hours and total pay. Net hours and pay are live Excel formulas. Currency shows as £ or KM. Column headings follow the company language.
06
An audit file that does not include PINs
Every clock action can be exported with the time, the person’s name, the action, the site and the tablet. PINs are never in that file. A privacy notice sits in the footer. Records are kept for six years, then removed.
07
A weekly rota the office publishes
Managers build the week on a Monday-to-Sunday board, put people on shifts, then Save & Send. Each person on that week gets one email with their times and the site PDF. Choose next week or another upcoming week and that is the week that is sent.
08
Clock-in follows the published week
Staff clock against the last sent rota, not a draft still being edited. They cannot clock in more than ten minutes early, and they cannot clock in if they are not on that week. Edits go live only when you Save & Send again.
09
Relief staff and leave on the same board
Relief belong to the organisation, not one site, so any manager can put them on a rota. They can use any kiosk in that same company, not another employer’s. Leave sits on the week so you do not double-book.
