Example schedule and attendance view

One team. Three versions of the truth.

Schedules sit in spreadsheets, changes in chat, and arrivals elsewhere. By payday, managers rebuild the week.

The operating loop

The workforce loop

One source record follows the work. Each step keeps its context.

  1. 01 Onboard Add the person, role, and first shift
  2. 02 Schedule Build, review, and publish the week
  3. 03 Check in Verify arrival and departure at the venue
  4. 04 Review Resolve late, missed, or corrected time
  5. 05 Approve Lock the payable time with evidence
  6. 06 Record Give staff a clear earnings history

No re-entry between steps. Corrections keep the original evidence.

Schedule with the week in view

Week board
A visual week with every shift. Drag to adjust, click to assign. Published once reviewed.
Role‑based scheduling
Define roles (barista, kitchen, manager). Assign people to shifts by role.
Published = committed
Once the schedule is published, every staff member sees their week. Edits create an auditable change record.

Attendance and time

Check‑in at the venue
Staff verify arrival and departure on a shared terminal. Each check‑in is timestamped and geo‑tagged.
Break and return
Record meal breaks and returns. The terminal stays on the attendance screen during operating hours.
Late and missed
A late arrival or missed shift is flagged immediately. The manager sees it in real time, not on payday.

Exceptions and corrections

Forgot to check out
A missing departure creates a flagged shift visible to both the staff member and the manager.
Time correction
The manager can correct a time record. Every correction is logged with who made it and when.
Swap and cover
A staff member can request a swap. The manager approves. The schedule updates without a spreadsheet edit.

Approval and earnings

Payable time approval
The owner reviews and locks the approved time at the end of the pay period. Locked time cannot be changed.
Tip allocation
Reviewed tip distribution based on hours worked. Visible to the owner only.
Personal earnings statement
Each staff member sees their own hours, approved time, corrections, and earnings across every period.

A clear boundary
