👥 Daily Attendance and Payroll Tracking
Mark attendance daily and build accurate payroll records without spreadsheets. Here's the complete workflow.
-
Open Staff from the main menu Tap Staff > Attendance. You'll see today's date at the top with all active staff members listed below.
-
Select the date (if marking past days) By default, today's date is selected. Tap the date picker to change it if you're marking attendance for a previous date.
-
Mark each staff member's status For each staff name, tap the status button and select: Present, Absent, or Half Day. Changes save instantly. You can see checkmarks confirming each status.
-
Record shift timings (optional) Optionally enter Check-In Time and Check-Out Time for each staff member. This helps track shift hours and is useful for overtime calculations.
-
View the monthly attendance report Go to Staff > Monthly Report to see total present days, absences, half days, and leaves for any staff member. This is perfect for payroll calculations and identifying patterns.
💡 Pro Tips:
- Mark attendance at the start of each shift — takes less than 2 minutes for your entire team.
- Use Half Day for staff who work partial shifts (e.g., closing shift only).
- Record shift times consistently — this helps with scheduling and prevents disputes about worked hours.
- Download the monthly report before paying staff — it's an official record for both parties.
Common Attendance Scenarios
- Regular staff: Mark Present every shift day they work
- Partial shift: Mark Half Day if they leave early or come late
- Day off: Leave blank or mark as Leave (if you have a leave option)
- Guest staff: Add them as temporary staff, mark their attendance, then archive when done
