Key workforce management features for auto shops
Multiple options for clocking in and out
Employees can clock in and out on a computer, tablet, or their mobile phones. Geofencing and IP address locks ensure employees are on site when logging hours, and photos on punch prevents buddy punching.
Job costing
Create job codes for each job you want to track time against, then assign them to employees. Employees select a job code when clocking in or switching jobs so you can bill customers for labor costs accurately.
Employee scheduling
Create schedules for your team quickly and easily. Let your team members send shift trades and cover requests that you can approve. Give employees access to their schedules on their phones.
Attendance tracking
Get alerts when employees clock in late, clock out early, or miss a shift entirely so you can keep track of what’s happening even when you’re not on site. View detailed attendance reports to spot issues.
Automatic timesheets
Clock in and out times are added to timesheets with regular hours, overtime hours, and pay calculated automatically. Edits are easy to make, and unpaid breaks can be removed automatically.
Overtime alerts
Get a notification when team members are nearing overtime to eliminate unexpected overtime costs. Shift schedules around as needed and automatically notify employees of schedule changes.
