Problem & solution

Stop Managing Attendance with Manual Timesheets

Manual attendance tracking creates payroll errors, overtime confusion, missing punches, inaccurate worked hours, and compliance risk. Teams searching for attendance tracking software usually want one authoritative record per shift, not five versions of the same day in spreadsheets and chat.

Core capabilities

Employee attendance tracker features for daily operations

Heyshift is workforce attendance management software built around how shift-based teams actually punch, correct, and report time: mobile, kiosk, rules, and analytics in one path.

Mobile & kiosk

Track Attendance from Mobile, Kiosk, and Shared Devices

Mobile workforce teams, remote crews, and location operations need more than one punch path. Heyshift supports personal phones, shared tablets, and supervisor visibility so every site can run the attendance tracking app pattern that fits.

  • Mobile workforce clock-in

    Field crews, delivery teams, and floor staff punch from the app with the shift they were scheduled to work.

  • Shared tablets at the location

    Kiosk mode on iPad or Android tablets gives site teams a fast punch path when personal phones are not the right fit.

  • Real-time supervisor visibility

    Managers see who is in, late, or on break without waiting for end-of-day exports from each location.

  • Multi-site operations

    Compare attendance activity across locations from one account instead of reconciling separate timesheet files per site.

Connect Scheduling and Attendance in One Workflow

The strongest attendance management software pairs punches with the schedule managers already published. Heyshift connects employee scheduling software to time tracking so planned vs worked hours stay visible for supervisors and finance.

  • Compare scheduled vs worked hours

    Planned shifts sit beside actual punches so variance conversations start from one official week, not two systems.

  • Attendance tied to shifts

    Clock events reference the roster managers published, which keeps daily ops and payroll aligned on what should have happened.

  • Overtime visibility before close

    Spot trending hours over plan while there is still time to adjust coverage or approve corrections.

  • Labor cost control

    Worked time feeds labor context beside scheduling so operators see cost signals while the week is still open.

Multi-location

Monitor Attendance Across Teams and Locations

Multi-site operators need location visibility without calling every location lead. Heyshift is an attendance system for employees that rolls up activity across sites, areas, and supervisors from one workforce platform. Pair with multi-location scheduling software when you standardize publish habits across locations.

  • Location visibility from one dashboard

    Review attendance activity by location, area, or supervisor without opening a separate file for each site.

  • Workforce coverage signals

    See who is on the floor, who is late, and where gaps are forming before customers or patients feel it.

  • Centralized reporting

    Filter and export attendance across sites for district reviews, audits, and payroll handoff.

  • Supervisor coordination

    Area leads and location managers share the same attendance view so escalation does not depend on phone trees.
