Time & Attendance

How does Axial Shift catch time and attendance issues before payroll?

Short answer

Axial brings punches and the schedule together in one view, so managers catch problems by shift and by employee before payroll closes, not after. Time & Attendance is an add-on to the Axial Platform.

What Axial flags

  • Early and late arrivals
  • Missed punches
  • Extended shifts
  • Unscheduled clock-ins
  • No-shows
  • Missed breaks, with a break audit report that shows where premium pay applies

Before payroll

  • Managers lock and approve punches before they go to payroll.
  • Employees request punch edits from the app, and managers get notified.
  • Axial logs every punch edit for audit.

Labor detail

The labor report compares actual hours with scheduled hours, by job and by employee, and by shift and hour instead of weekly totals.

Pricing

Time & Attendance is an add-on app. Once you have the Axial Platform, you can add any app, and apps range from $10 to $35 per store per month. They're priced competitively because every app runs on one data structure and shares the same mobile app and website. See pricing.
